Intershop Communications AG, a global provider of B2B e-commerce solutions for the manufacturing, wholesale and distribution sectors, today announced it has been named in The Forrester Wave™: Commerce Solutions, Q3 2026, an independent evaluation of commerce platforms. Intershop was among the 10 providers assessed in this report.
For Intershop, this recognition reflects a deliberate strategy: bringing agentic AI tooling into everyday B2B operations where it creates measurable value. Markus Dranert, CEO of Intershop, said: “We believe this result reflects our unrelenting focus on B2B and the investments we have made in practical, real-world AI. Our customers, from hidden-champion manufacturers to global industrial powerhouses, need commerce that handles genuine complexity. That is exactly what we build.”
Andy Stanis, EVP and Managing Director for Intershop Americas, added: “Serious commerce leaders don’t accept platforms that treat B2B as an add-on. We believe Forrester recognizing Intershop validates what our customers experience every day: when the complexity is real, this is the platform engineered for it.”
The recognition is significant for the B2B e-commerce space, as it underscores the growing importance of platforms that can handle intricate sales processes, multi-channel operations, and the integration of AI to streamline workflows. Intershop's inclusion in the report signals its relevance among major players, particularly for companies seeking a solution tailored to B2B rather than adapted from B2C.
