Lafuma Mobilier, a flagship French brand of sustainable outdoor furniture, chose Synolia to turn its digital ecosystem into a high-performance, data-centric digital experience platform. By connecting Adobe Commerce, Zendesk and Klaviyo, the brand optimizes every touchpoint, whatever the point of sale (online or in store), all the way to customer service. This ambitious project shows how a well-managed technical architecture supports a strategy of international growth and lasting customer loyalty. It also proves that, beyond the solutions themselves, choosing a partner to orchestrate them is decisive in turning technological complexity into a performance driver.
For 70 years, Lafuma Mobilier has been the go-to specialist in “made in France” outdoor furniture. With a range of responsible, durable and repairable products, the brand sells in more than fifteen countries. However, fast-growing D2C (Direct-to-Consumer) sales and the demands of international markets exposed the limits of a siloed information system.
With previous solutions that were disconnected from one another, Lafuma Mobilier faced growing technical debt and a loss of operational efficiency. To support its ambitions, the company had to move from a simple online store to a true digital experience platform, able to unify customer knowledge, streamline customer journeys and showcase its environmental commitments.
"It had become far too unstable and too cumbersome to manage. We were on a solution with no future and very limited performance. It was getting really hard for the teams, who were worn out by an outdated platform and losing more and more efficiency."
Lafuma Mobilier entrusted Synolia with orchestrating the convergence of three core pillars: commerce, marketing and customer service. The project had several goals:
E-commerce replatforming: migrate to a scalable, multilingual, high-performance solution.
Marketing automation: migrate to a marketing automation solution able to leverage unified data to maximize customer value.
Customer service digitalization: centralize multichannel requests and structure support.
Technical consistency: ensure seamless integration between Adobe Commerce, Zendesk, Klaviyo, the existing PIM and data from the CDP (BigQuery).
As Lafuma Mobilier’s long-standing partner, we took a cross-functional approach to turn the brand’s needs into a unified platform.
To meet performance requirements, we implemented Adobe Commerce Cloud paired with the Hyvä theme. This strategic choice combines the power of a robust back office with an ultra-lightweight front-end interface.
"Drawing on the combined expertise of our consulting and business intelligence teams, we built a web performance monitoring platform. This approach revealed the friction points of Lafuma Mobilier's previous e-commerce platform, which we then fixed with Hyvä."
Lafuma Mobilier’s e-commerce platform now handles the complexity of international markets (7 languages, multiple currencies) and runs B2B and B2C activities side by side. It delivers a premium customer experience with outstanding performance and seamless navigation.

Because the digital experience doesn’t stop at the shopping cart, we helped Lafuma Mobilier structure its Anneyron-based customer service with Zendesk. By replacing traditional email handling (Outlook), the brand gained visibility and responsiveness. It also standardized its processes to deliver a consistent, high-quality customer service promise in every market it serves.
In addition, integrating the “Lafuma Mobilier for life” landing page with Zendesk now links product warranties directly to customer profiles, building a bridge between wholesale customers and the brand.
"Zendesk lets us centralize every customer contact and organize the follow-up, even in peak season when teams are scaled up quickly, because it is so easy to learn. We also rolled it out for our 5-year warranty through the Lafuma For Life landing page."
Today, Zendesk unifies Lafuma Mobilier’s international customer service. The tool centralizes requests from every country, whether they come from its e-commerce sites (Adobe Commerce and Shopify) or from marketplaces (Amazon, ManoMano, La Redoute).
As the final building block, the migration to Klaviyo put data at the heart of activation. In just six weeks, our teams orchestrated the switchover of data flows from Adobe Commerce and the CDP (BigQuery). This integration enables marketing campaign personalization at scale, with automated scenarios (abandoned carts, welcome series) that directly drive sales performance.
Over our years of collaboration with Lafuma Mobilier, our platform orchestrator approach has delivered visible results across the entire value chain:
"Today, largely thanks to the Hyvä theme, we are one of the best-performing Adobe Commerce sites out there (according to our SEO agency). We did not lose any SEO traffic, we are gaining it. The site's web performance has skyrocketed, especially load times. Our teams can now move forward with confidence. Time-to-market is shorter. Every indicator is green."
Building on the success of its digital transformation, Lafuma Mobilier is now taking the next step. The teams are focused on making full use of data to engage customers even more and create new business opportunities. The goal: evolve the e-commerce site into a smart, customer-centric ecosystem that drives more sales and strengthens loyalty. The adventure is just beginning!
