Client Background
In late 2023, a newly founded Dutch e-commerce company sent us their first inquiry. Operating both a standalone webshop and Amazon storefronts, they planned to test the European market with 3,000 units of our 3d quicksand table lamps. As a startup, they needed more than a supplier — they needed a strategic partner who understood the European market and could guide their product expansion.
Partnership Timeline
| Phase | Timeframe | Milestone |
| First Order | Late 2023 | 3,000 3d quicksand table lamps for cross-platform test launch |
| Category Expansion | 2024 | Rolled out 30+ bestselling restaurant table lamp SKUs across multiple styles, materials, and price points |
| Strategic Advisory | Mid-2025 | i-Essence recommended expanding into LED reading lamps based on European market data. The client adopted the suggestion and achieved strong sales performance |
| New Category Launch | Early 2026 | i-Essence introduced solar lights, ceiling lights, and wall lights, sharing European demand trends. Based on the proven success of previous recommendations, the client immediately committed to full category expansion |
