Bol.com

Bol.com’s “blue carpet” event took place this year at DeFabrique. During the well-attended event—packed with inspiring speakers, surprises, and networking opportunities—the online retailer’s suppliers were treated to a special experience.

ABOUT BOL.COM

With nearly 16 million items, bol.com is one of the largest online retailers in the Netherlands and Belgium. In addition to its own product range, the online store serves as a sales channel for private sellers and other retailers.

Rhythmic opening act

The event kicked off with a performance by LED’s Have A Ball, who treated the guests to a rhythmic percussion show. The African drums were soon swapped out for some truly unique instruments: three enormous LED balloons. With every beat, the balloons lit up in vibrant colors. It was a surprising start to the day.

Tailored Inspiration

Suppliers were fully immersed in the world of the online store. Not only did the venue exude the bol.com vibe, but a tailored program of content had also been carefully planned. Under the banner “Overflowing with inspiration? You can do it with bol.com,” five different breakout sessions were organized. Inspiration is tailored to your needs, which is why suppliers could attend breakout sessions in various product categories—from toys and entertainment to lifestyle and everyday products.

Event Producer DeFabrique

"This year, we had the privilege of organizing bol.com’s Supplier Day for the second time. We discussed the initial ideas while sitting at our picnic bench in the sunshine. That’s exactly how sunny the entire collaboration felt to me; we know what to expect from each other and can adapt quickly and effectively, resulting in a wonderful event. The blue carpet running through the entire venue really stood out, and the signage in bol.com blue was a real added touch."
