Introduction
Carhartt Work in Progress (WIP) is a licensee of the Carhartt workwear brand from the United States focused on offering street wear styles to subcultures like skating, graffiti, hip hop, or BMX. Carhartt WIP has expanded across Europe and beyond. For their online business, it is particularly important to consistently provide a great customer experience, scalable across millions of users of various markets. Page speed was identified to have significant improvement potentials, especially because of its SEO implications.
"The great thing about Speed Kit is its scalability and fast implementation. We were able to go live within a matter of days and could implement it across our three biggest markets, Germany, France, and the UK, at the same time. The results are impressive, and by now Speed Kit is live on all our major country sites."
