Creation of a community
"From the shoebox to the sports and fashion industry"
With our shareholders ANWR Group, SABU and HDS/L, we have strong partners at our side with whom we develop practical solutions.
SPORT 2000 has been relying on our system since 2022, making us probably the largest clearing center in the sports industry.
"A merchandise management system is only as good as the article data it contains"
With this insight, the ECC was founded in 1998. Then, as now, it had a clear vision: to simplify and streamline electronic data interchange (EDI) between suppliers and retailers. Initially, we acted as a clearing center (data interpreter); today, thanks to comprehensive solutions, we enable a completely digital goods management process.

"A company is only as good as the team behind it"
We are a small company where teamwork is paramount. Our team is a mix of young and young-at-heart people. We're not a startup, but we're really taking off. We grew up in the shoe industry and are continuing to grow in the sports and fashion sectors. We are an independent service provider for the fashion-oriented retail sector and the link and interpreter between retail and industry.
