Senheng® established in 1989 from a tiny consumer electronics half shop lot set up with stocks worth less than Ringgit Malaysia thirty thousand. Now Senheng® is one of the leading consumer electronics chain stores in the country and has the largest electronics chain store operating over 100 stores branches straddling the length and breadth of Malaysia with more than 465 employees. The company strives to provide a convenient and unique shopping experience and better value to every consumer.

Senheng, one of the leading Electronic Consumer and Home Appliance stores in Malaysia, has launched a new complete Omnichannel Magento 2 Ecommerce site solution in collaboration with Kemana for continuous growth in the industry.

The Senheng 2.0 project involved a number of Kemana team members across multiple countries, supporting a wide range of different functions. The team facilitated a complete “re-think” on how Senheng will engage with consumers moving away from a linear centric approach to an incremental experience model.

As the largest online electrical appliance company in Malaysia, Senheng has millions of members with multiple unique data fields integrated with the loyalty program of Senheng, all of which needed to be migrated and functioning within the new site once live, as well as, the integrated POS of course. This created several challenges to overcome.

SOLUTIONS

Senheng came with an outdated Magento platform with known issues from Magento 2.2.5, a code audit was performed prior to site optimization and upgrade to latest Magento version.
