Zamro
Disruptive digital scale-up
Situated in the heart of the e-commerce world, Zamro emerged as a disruptive force, cutting through the conventional norms of B2B operations with finesse. Equipped with insights gleaned from the B2C realm, Zamro identified the potential for transformation within the B2B spectrum, specifically the Maintenance, Repair & Operations (MRO) category, catering to SMEs. Innovatively employing marketing automation, search engine optimization, and user experience optimization, it fine-tuned an online hub for machine components, tools, and MRO necessities.
1. Huge gap in the market – They specialize in machine parts, tools and supplies for MRO for SMEs. In Europe, this market is worth over €120bn, and it’s mainly offline.
2. Substantial, long-term investment – ZAMRO is backed by ERIKS, a strategic investor, and owned by SHV, one of the Netherlands’ most successful international entrepreneurial conglomerates. This gives us the leverage to maximize our first-mover advantage.
3. Winning team – The Amsterdam office is extremely fast-paced, thanks to ZAMRO’s focus on hiring young, talented and highly motivated professionals. The vibe of positive collaboration will help them achieve their international goals.
4. Great culture – With over 45 experts from 8 different nationalities, ZAMRO features a respectful, multi-cultural environment. Hard work comes with great celebrations: when they launched their German webshop, they celebrated in style: with beer, bratwurst and Oktoberfest outfits.
The market
In Europe alone, the MRO market for small and medium enterprises is worth over €120bn. This market is mostly serviced by offline players. Based on the market developments in the US and Asia, it’s likely that 10% of the MRO trade will take place online by 2020. Recognizing the potential, Eric and Floris Jan draft a plan of attack in 2015.
In 2018, the SHV-backed scale-up ZAMRO and SHV-backed giant ERIKS synergistically aligned, diversifying their offerings while catering to different market segments. As a result, what was once the core of ZAMRO, combined with additional strong CRM and backend process teams, is now the ERIKS Digital Office. For current vacancies, visit the ERIKS career page.
