“We looked at all the B2B and SaaS systems, finally selecting a long-established industry front runner. But just one problem…” 💬 “We quickly discovered that the platform was far too complex and not user-friendly.” — Randy Hoogeweegen, Ampère co-founder. Ampère is an Amsterdam-based men’s fashion label founded in 2021 by Randy and Aleks Kuijpers, from their passion to innovate in the men’s fashion industry. They wanted to expand into global markets, pushing their premium products and high end aesthetic beyond the Netherlands. But to do that…. They needed a cloud based inventory and sales management platform. 💬 “We were looking for a tool that made things easier for our customers,” says Hoogeweegen. “Not a system that put up barriers and complicated the process.” The switch to Kingpin delivered immediate results: Within 3 months, they saved €3,000+ in software costs. 💬 “Although Kingpin has made things easier for our team, what’s more important is that our buyers intuitively understand Kingpin. It is really easy to use, which is crucial to improving sales.” Simplify your sales operations like Ampère did. Make the switch to Kingpin and get: ✨ Intuitive ordering system ✨ Seamless catalogue management ✨ Responsive customer support We’re proud to be able to play a small role in Ampere’s growth. Can’t wait to see them scale. 🫡

It’s been a big year for us at Kingpin: we now serve 4980+ users across 75+ countries and our market footprint’s grown by +175%…. grossing about $1B in annualized GMV this 2024. None of this could have happened without the fantastic Kingpin mafia that’s almost doubled in size (and still managed not to break the coffee machine). To our clients and brands who’ve trusted us, thank you. Here's to an even bigger 2025. Happy new year.

Update from the Kingpin office: coffee's still flowing, deadlines still exist, but now everything's got a festive and christmas-y glow. Bonus: there's cookies in the kitchen. Merry Christmas from the team at Kingpin – and happy holidays. 🤶🏽✌🏾

Yesterday was UAE National Day. As we reflect on the past year at Kingpin, we're reminded of why we chose to build from Dubai for the world. The region's rapid growth and minimal barriers to entry have enabled us to move fast, serving brands and retailers who are increasingly choosing Dubai as their hub. Happy Eid Al Etihad. 🇦🇪

“How’s my shipment looking?” Frantically pull up 7 different excel sheets: **15 minutes of awkward silence later** “Let me get back to you.” Sound familiar? Stop juggling disconnected systems that keep breaking. Comment "+1" for a FREE tool stack audit. (👇🏾)

Our team got together for lunch in Dubai this week, with people flying all the way in from Jordan and Belarus to join our Dubai mafia (though we were still missing some of our International mates). It's always special to connect over great food and even better conversations. Now, back to building. ✌🏾
