Why an online store makes sense for Dudelange
Dudelange is a commune in esch-sur-Alzette, luxembourg, home to about 22,000 people, and one of the markets in Luxembourg where we build online stores.
Businesses here work in steel finishing, logistics and the eurohub sud; many are based around the Dudelange industrial zone and Centre.
Logistics are supported by The Eurohub Sud rail freight terminal and A3 motorway, which matters when you promise customers fast delivery.
Luxembourg has SMEs make up 99% of all businesses in the European Union (European Commission). Luxembourg has the EU’s highest GDP per capita and a multilingual, cross-border shopper base that also includes workers commuting from France, Belgium and Germany. Stores must support French, German and English and ship across borders.
For a business in Dudelange, the opportunity is to own the customer relationship: your own online store keeps your margin, your data and your brand, while marketplaces and social channels become additional sales routes instead of the only one.

Each module below is configured — or custom-developed — to your requirements. You choose what launches first and what follows in later phases.
Branded storefront
A fast, mobile-first design on your own domain with your colours, typography, banners, landing pages and SEO-ready category structure. Inventory can sit in Dudelange, in a partner warehouse or across Luxembourg, with click-and-collect where customers want it.
Catalogue manager
Categories, brands, variants, bundles, specifications, images, videos and bulk import/export so your team can manage thousands of SKUs. Reports show which products, customers and areas of Dudelange drive revenue.
Checkout and payments
Guest and account checkout, local payment gateways, wallets, bank transfer, cash on delivery, coupons and abandoned-cart recovery. Storefront language, imagery and navigation are set up for Dudelange shoppers and available in Luxembourgish and French.
Orders and fulfilment
Order confirmation, packing slips, courier booking, tracking links, cancellations, returns, refunds and customer notifications. Product data imports from your existing sheets or ERP, so Dudelange teams do not re-type thousands of items.
Inventory and locations
Stock by warehouse or store, low-stock alerts, store pickup, local delivery zones and sync with your existing inventory system. Payment steps are built around Visa and Mastercard, Bancontact (cross-border) and PayPal, the options shoppers here already trust.
Growth and reporting
Promotions, loyalty, reviews, email and WhatsApp campaigns, plus dashboards for revenue, products, customers and conversion. Shipping rules can use POST Luxembourg, DHL and DPD as well as your own delivery staff in Dudelange.

Your own store alongside Amazon.fr and Amazon.de and Cdiscount
Amazon.fr and Amazon.de, Cdiscount and Zalando are where many shoppers in Dudelange start, which is why sellers list there. The trade-off is commission, limited branding and rules the platform can change overnight.
NNT Mart gives you a channel you own: your domain, your customer list, your pricing and your brand. Where it helps, we connect product feeds and orders from marketplaces so stock stays in sync and your team works from one dashboard.
Compliance built into your online store
Tax basics: Luxembourg charges 17% standard VAT (the EU’s lowest) with 14%, 8% and 3% reduced rates, and uses the EU One-Stop Shop for B2C sales.
On privacy we design around the GDPR and the Luxembourg Data Protection Law of 2018, enforced by the CNPD; on consumer rights the store reflects the Consumer Code, with 14-day withdrawal and trilingual disclosure norms.
Our job is the engineering: price display with tax, invoice numbering, cookie and marketing consent, return and terms pages, role-based access and logs. Legal and tax conclusions stay with your own adviser in Luxembourg.
Take your Dudelange store onto customers' phones
Phones carry most traffic in Luxembourg. A customer shopping app for Android and iOS can share the same catalogue, cart, offers and order history, with push notifications for drops, price alerts and delivery updates.
One backend serves the website and the apps, and the apps ship under your own Google Play and App Store accounts — so what you change once appears everywhere.
Order alerts, offers and abandoned-cart reminders go out on Dudelange time (UTC+2), in Luxembourgish and French if you want.
- ERP and inventory software
- Courier and shipping aggregators
- Accounting and GST/VAT invoicing
- Meta and TikTok catalogues
- CRM and email marketing
- WhatsApp Business API
- Google Analytics 4 and Merchant Center
- Payment gateways and wallets
Integrations above are examples; we connect any system that offers a suitable API, database access or approved import and export process.
