At Batavia Tools, publishing product data to the Belgian HUBO marketplace proved more complex than expected. With hands-on support from PIMvendors, the company overcame operational challenges and successfully connected to the HUBO Mirakl platform.
Client Introduction
Batavia Tools is an innovative tool brand with a growing presence across Europe. The company develops smart, affordable tools for DIY and professional users, selling through retail partners and online marketplaces. Expanding into new digital sales channels is a key driver of their growth strategy.
The Challenge
To strengthen their position in Belgium, Batavia wanted to publish products on the HUBO marketplace, which runs on Mirakl. However, preparing product data in the correct format, enriching it with mandatory attributes, and managing the ongoing data flow proved to be a significant operational hurdle. Without the right expertise, onboarding risked being delayed and market opportunities missed.

We also supported in setting up efficient processes to manage updates and keep product information consistent. This practical involvement accelerated onboarding and gave the team confidence in working with Mirakl.
The Results
Batavia successfully launched its products on the HUBO marketplace, opening a new sales channel in Belgium. The process of publishing and maintaining product data is now faster, more reliable, and less resource-intensive. With PIMvendors’ operational support, Batavia gained both immediate results and internal know-how to manage future marketplace connections.
