Mont Marte is one of the world’s leading art supply companies.

Discover how OSE is working with Mont Marte to position their brands' digital sales channel as a leader in the art supplies industry.

Products, community and creativity.
This is the Mont Marte way.

If you’re familiar with Mont Marte’s range of art supplies, you’ll know that you get amazing value for money when purchasing any item in their extensive range.

This is a core part of the commitment of Mont Marte to their creative community. Quality first, before anything else.

That’s why when OSE began working with Mont Marte, we knew that the Mont Marte eCommerce required not only a functional eCommerce product, but a beautiful one their community could engage with.

Mobile-first for a device-driven world

During our initial conversations with the Mont Marte team, both parties we adamant that we had to deliver a mobile-first design strategy that would support modern consumer habits.

From smart menus, to precise scrolling and sizing of key screen elements to ensure ease of use, Mont Marte’s new eCommerce offering delivers a mobile solution that is both visually stunning and as informative as the desktop variant.

Whether you’re looking to purchase multiple items from a single product page, search, locate a Mont Marte stockist, or consume video tutorials on-the-go, Mont Marte has you covered.

Ease of management, updatability and agility

Because the Mont Marte team are regularly updating their website with new and exciting products and content, ensuring OSE implemented a solution that would allow them to do so without leaning on their agency to deliver content updates work was a priority for this project.

OSE chose Magento Commerce Cloud’s Page Builder service as the central point for management of content due to ease of adding new and visually appealing content, and the ability to schedule new content with the click of a button.

Not short on artistic talent, OSE empowered Mont Marte’s local marketing team to maintain their website content to great success!

AI-driven product recommendations using Adobe Sensei

When browsing Mont Marte’s eCommerce site, you’ll experience AI-driven product recommendations made possible with Adobe Sensei as part of Magento Commerce.

This AI powered machine-learning capability allows eCommerce retailers to determine which products their users are most engaged with and offer them more relevant content without having to ‘hard-code’ related products which may go out of stock or be discontinued.

From up-sells or cross-sells to recommended products, Magento Commerce using Adobe Sensei is an awesome tool eCommerce retailer should consider.
