It’s time to spend a moment or two to find out more about one of the DeskLodge companies who have been ab-sol-utely smashing it. This month it is… GENE Commerce!

Find out what DeskLodge has done to help them achieve a transformative 2024!

What does your company GENE Commerce Ltd do?

GENE is a world renowned ecommerce agency specialising in Adobe Commerce & Magento with the vision for what’s needed, the guts to make it happen and the skills to pull it off. Unlike other agencies GENE makes Adobe Commerce upgrades painless, provides unlimited support, and offers a seamless, fast, and mobile-optimised checkout experience.

The things that make us stand out:

We’re certified Adobe Commerce / Magento experts, and the only agency who has code baked in to the core Adobe platform

We’ve been PayPal’s official development partner since 2015. We support thousands of merchants and billions of dollars globally through our integrations

We built and sold PageBuilder to Magento

We put your Business Before Technology. Strategy and requirements will define what technology is used not the other way around

Context and collaboration is everything. Knowing and understanding the why, the what and the how will ensure a successful outcome

Our unique approach to Adobe Commerce/Magento upgrades has significantly reduced the risk, effort and disruption

What are your plans for the rest of 2024?

For the rest of 2024, we have several significant projects lined up with both our existing and potential clients. Our primary focus will be on rolling out new features and functionalities that will enhance their ecommerce sites, ensuring they remain ahead of the curve in the competitive market. Additionally, we are in the process of obtaining ISO 9001and 27001 certifications. Achieving these will be a major milestone for us, as it will not only enhance our internal processes but also boost our clients' confidence in our commitment to quality and security.

We're also excited to introduce the specialised PayPal checkout experience called Fastlane, alongside our own Better Checkout solution. As industry-recognised checkout experts, we've developed a checkout module that has already provided significant value to our clients. Moving forward, we are expanding its availability to a wider audience, helping more businesses optimise their checkout processes and improve conversion rates.

Overall, 2024 is shaping up to be a transformative year,with major initiatives that will drive growth and innovation for both ourclients and our business.

How has working at DeskLodge helped your company to grow and succeed?

As a company, we are very spread out over the UK. We have many hubs where teams from different areas can come in to meet up and work collaboratively. Our Desklodge site is perfectly situated for us to be able to meet up weekly. Despite the company being comfortable with us working 5 days a week from home, we need to be able to meet up in person for a change of location and scene, for our mental well-being as well as to encourage in-person collaboration.

What’s been the best thing about working from DeskLodge?

The staff at Desklodge are all incredibly welcoming and truly show care for the companies which are hiring out office space. It makes such a difference to arrive at work to a friendly conversation and welcoming smile. The style of the building is so quirky, it really stands out from the crowd!

We LOVE the coffee, the juices, the dog-friendlyco-workers, the space, and the hotdesking with monitors!
