Challenge

iFixit had established itself globally as the trusted repair resource, but translating that into physical retail distribution in Europe required more than logistics. Rodriguez Stohrer was searching for a partner who understood the iFixit mission: one who could navigate unfamiliar category structures, local distributor relationships, and retailer listing requirements, while staying genuinely aligned with what iFixit stands for.

Approach

nonplusultra worked hand in hand with iFixit's team to build an EMEA retail strategy from the ground up: identified the right retail formats, negotiated listings, and managed distributor relationships. A phased market entry approach prioritised quick wins in DACH and Benelux before expanding across Europe.

Outcome

iFixit opened 40+ retail accounts across 6+ EMEA markets in 12 months: zero European distribution infrastructure to consistent shelf presence in DACH, Benelux, and beyond. The retail foundation built in year one now supports iFixit's continued European expansion.
