What Solution25 does

Solution25 is a privately held e-commerce development agency headquartered in Bremen, Germany, with additional offices in Pristina, Kosovo and New York. Founded as an agency in 2017 by operators Besnik Bilalli and Besar Bilalli after running their own online stores since 2010, the firm specializes in building, migrating, and scaling online stores on Shopware (primary), Shopify, and Magento/Adobe Commerce, with custom development on Laravel and React. Service lines include custom store builds, zero-downtime platform migrations, ERP/PIM/CRM and payment integrations, UX/UI design, e-commerce audits, and ongoing managed support. The firm has developed 14+ proprietary Shopware 6 plugins covering payments, fraud prevention, marketing automation, subscriptions, and operations, and built the Foleja marketplace in Southeast Europe, the region's largest marketplace with 1,000+ sellers.

The company generates revenue primarily through professional services and managed support contracts on a quote-based, customized pricing model, with free consultations and audits as the top-of-funnel mechanism. Customer mix spans enterprise (Würth, Opel, TonerPartner, Foleja, Miniature Market, TFP Fertility) and mid-market (HelloBody, Banana Beauty, Saltedbeauty), totaling 200+ brand relationships. Go-to-market is sales-led, CEO-engaged enterprise direct sales, supplemented by the Shopware Platinum Partner referral channel, industry event presence (E-commerce Berlin Expo, Shopware United Connect), owned content/SEO, and an inaugural E-commerce Summit Hamburg 2026. The company is owner-led with no external funding rounds disclosed; recent strategic moves include a 2024 New York expansion, 2025 Shopware Platinum Partner status, and the February 2025 launch of the StatHubs mobile analytics app under a wholly owned subsidiary.

• dkd Internet Service: Frankfurt-based Shopware Platinum Partner providing custom e-commerce development, PIM/ERP integrations, and managed services for mid-market and enterprise merchants in DACH — directly comparable in service portfolio and target customer.
• Yireo: Dutch Shopware and Magento extension developer plus agency services; strong on plugin catalog and developer training. Comparable as a Shopware ecosystem specialist with a productized plugin side, similar to Solution25's plugin library.
• Netresearch DTT: Long-standing Shopware Platinum Partner and German e-commerce development agency offering custom Shopware and Magento implementations, migrations, and integrations. Closest direct peer given overlapping geography, partner tier, and service mix.

Broad incumbents

• AOE: Larger full-service digital agency with enterprise e-commerce, portal, and TYPO3/Shopware practices. A broader incumbent competing for some of the same enterprise RFPs as Solution25 but at higher scale and wider service scope.

Others

Emerging players
