What does it take to stay relevant when you’ve been in the market for decades?
For Dogman, the answer lies in respecting experience - while being willing to rethink the way you work.
Founded in 1965, Dogman is a Swedish company built around pet products, driven by a clear commitment to offering good products for families’ best friends: their beloved pets. What began as a wholesale business has grown steadily over time. Today, Dogman operates across Sweden, Finland, Norway and Spain, with a strong presence in wholesale, retail, and e-commerce.
That long history brings deep know-how and a solid reputation, but it also brings complexity.
“Being an experienced player with many years on the market is for sure a strength. We have great know-how and a good reputation - but it also comes with some challenges. The market has other demands today.”
Josefin Damberg, Category Manager, Dogman Group
When growth changes the game
As Dogman expanded into a full retail chain alongside e-commerce, the demands on product development, coordination, and internal alignment increased. Processes that once worked well enough became harder to scale, and familiar tools started to show their limits.
For years, Dogman relied on spreadsheets, emails, and checklists. While practical, these tools also created silos. Information lived in different places, workflows varied across teams, and gaining a clear overview became increasingly difficult as the organization grew.
Creating one way of working
With the implementation of Delogue, Dogman began a gradual shift away from fragmented tools toward a more unified setup. Instead of information being spread across files and inboxes, product data is now gathered in one shared platform.
“Since we implemented Delogue, we are able to step by step move away from all of those Excel sheets, endless emails, and checklists. The system helps us share product information across teams and work in a more structured way.”
Josefin Damberg, Category Manager, Dogman Group
This shift has helped establish a common way of working across departments. Rather than multiple approaches depending on team or role, Delogue has become a shared reference point - supporting alignment, consistency, and clearer collaboration internally.
Overview brings confidence
One of the most tangible changes for Dogman has been visibility. With Delogue, the team now has a clear overview of assortments and ongoing projects, something they previously lacked.
This overview has also changed how Dogman works with seasons and deadlines. Planning has become more structured, timelines clearer, and collaboration across departments smoother. With everyone working from the same data, alignment happens more naturally and decisions can be made with greater confidence.
Preparing for what’s next
Looking ahead, Dogman sees Delogue as a key part of their future setup. The next step is to bring suppliers into the platform, extending collaboration beyond internal teams and ensuring that product information flows seamlessly throughout the value chain.
At the same time, increasing demands around legislation and product tracking make structure more important than ever. Transparency, traceability, and documentation are no longer optional - they are essential.
“We also see the need with the system to keep up with the upcoming legislations and demands on tracking products. Without a system as Delogue we would not be able to do that.”
Karin Bandrup, Sustainability and Quality Manager, Dogman Group
Built on experience, ready for the future
For Dogman, implementing Delogue hasn’t been about replacing experience - it’s been about supporting it. By creating clearer processes, better collaboration, and a shared overview, the company has built a stronger foundation for the years ahead.
Rooted in history. Structured for what comes next.
