Pure-play Dutch online retailer

Wehkamp is a Dutch online retailer that started in 1952 as a mail-order mattress seller and grew into a catalog-based department store. It shifted to the web and became a pure-play e-commerce business in 2008, supported by a large, automated distribution center in Zwolle. The company distinguishes itself through its long history of moving from mail-order to online shopping and its emphasis on logistics automation, backed by Apax Partners as part of the Wehkamp Retail Group. Its goal is to provide convenient online shopping with reliable delivery and strong customer service as a major multi-brand e-commerce player.
