Getting a website or online shop built in Bremerhaven

Container port, fishing, wind energy, the Klimahaus climate exhibition: Bremerhaven combines industry and tourism. The web projects that come out of it differ just as widely — from a single interface to a full online shop. Sharpness Solutions in Oldenburg covers both ends.

Around the container port work firms whose processes went digital long ago — just in separate systems. The typical project here is not called “new website”, it is called “interface”: merchandise management to the shop, CRM to order processing, the product catalogue into a large customer's purchasing system via OCI/punch-out. We build those connections with PHP 8 and Symfony, robust enough to run day in, day out.

Wind energy and the maritime industry sell services that need explaining. For them a website is not a showpiece but a sales tool: clear structure, content that holds up, findable for the searches that matter. We use TYPO3 v14 for this and deliver the SEO plan and the content plan with it — structure and copy decide more than any template.

The Klimahaus and tourism bring visitors to the city, and fishing shapes local trade. For retailers the next step is often a shop of their own: Shopware 6, connected to merchandise management and shipping, hosted on our own servers in Germany. A shop that sells — not one that is merely online.

Oldenburg to Bremerhaven is about an hour and a half. We are glad to run workshops and sign-offs on site; the development happens in Oldenburg. After the launch we stay responsible: hosting, support, maintenance, ongoing development. Operation is not a by-product.

What we build for Bremerhaven

Frequently asked questions

Do you come to Bremerhaven for meetings?

Yes, and at roughly an hour and a half by car it is easy to plan. Project start, workshops and sign-offs take place at your offices if you want them there. The development itself runs in our office in Oldenburg, with fixed slots for coordination.

Can you connect our shop to our merchandise management system?

Yes, interfaces are one of our core services. We link Shopware 6 by API to merchandise management, CRM or shipping systems and build the connection with PHP 8 and Symfony — including operation and maintenance afterwards.

What does OCI/punch-out do for a supplier?

It puts your catalogue directly inside your customers' own purchasing systems, so they order without leaving them. Large buyers order through those systems as a matter of course. For suppliers working around the port and the wind energy sector, that connection is often a precondition for larger framework contracts.
