What they're building

Rebuilding the e-commerce platform and internal integrations strong signal

Today: Own online shop selling supplements, functional foods, clothing, cosmetics, household and equipment (site categories)

Roles: Principal Engineer · PHP Backend Developer

Requirements mention: monolith · e-commerce platform · scalable system design · ERP · e-shop · logistika

Inference: the Principal Engineer posting says Vilgain is "rebuilding key parts of its own e-commerce stack", including "splitting the monolith". The PHP Backend posting adds internal tools for Supply Chain, Manufacturing and NPD with ERP, e-shop and logistics integrations. This points to an in-house PHP stack being re-architected and connected to operations systems.

Supply chain planning, procurement and warehouse operations strong signal

Today: Postings describe supply chain "across DTC, retail and B2B" (Head of Operations) and a "moderním, automatizovaném skladu" in Kozomín (Team Leader Inbound)

Roles: Head of Operations · Product Owner - Supply Chain · Operative Commodity Buyer · Team Leader Inbound · Outbound transport specialist

Requirements mention: forecasting methods · demand planning · S&OP · carrier strategy · ERP systému · Zkušenost s automatizovaným skladem · B2B a paletová doprava

Inference: the Product Owner posting wants planning systems that "run on models, not spreadsheets" and that automatically place "the vast majority of orders". Two Supply Chain department roles (Brno), a DEV product owner (Praha) and two warehouse/transport roles (Kozomín) point to a planning and procurement build-out.

Home and self-care assortment build-out moderate signal

Today: Site category list includes Kozmetikumok (cosmetics), Háztartás (household) and Felszerelés (equipment)

Roles: Product Manager Self-Care & Cleaning (2) · Product Manager - Home assortment

Requirements mention: supplier sourcing · launch execution · sell-through · basic knowledge of cosmetics regulation · EU 1223/2009

Inference: the Home assortment posting says Vilgain is "building out their Home assortment across kitchen, household, and sport". The self-care role asks for EU cosmetics regulation knowledge. Together these suggest more sourced (not self-made) home and cosmetics products.

Food and supplement development and in-house production in Brno-Líšeň moderate signal

Today: Site sells protein powders, gummy vitamins, bars and other functional foods; posting: "Naše výroba v Brně-Líšni se rozšiřuje"

Roles: R&D Specialist - vývoj potravin & doplňků stravy · Regulatory & Claims Specialist · Seřizovač strojů ve výrobě funkční výživy · Pracovník ve výrobě funkční výživy - LÍŠEŇ

Requirements mention: tvorba a validace receptur · výrobní testy · Regulation (EC) No 1924/2006 · internal library of approved claims · obsluha a nastavování strojů · práce na směny

Inference: the machine-setter posting says "technologií stále přibývá" (more technology is being added) at Brno-Líšeň. R&D covers products from idea to launch, and the claims role is building a shared library of approved claims. This suggests more self-produced food and supplement launches.

Expansion into DACH and the UK moderate signal

Today: Already sells in Hungary: the site reviewed is vilgain.hu, in Hungarian, with prices in forint

Roles: DACH Social Media Specialist (Prague location) · Country Manager UK · E-commerce & Performance Manager

Requirements mention: Native-level German · Strong understanding of the DACH creator and social media landscape · Shopify · localization · performance marketing · CAC

Inference: DACH social is to be "built from the ground up", and the UK role is "building the next chapter of Vilgain in the UK" from London. Germany, Austria, Switzerland and the UK look like the next markets being built out, alongside existing ones.

Physical retail stores moderate signal

Today: Postings mention "retail stores" as a sales channel (Product Owner - Supply Chain) alongside DTC and B2B

Roles: Sales Assistant Bratislava · Sales Assistant Praha

Requirements mention: prodejního ducha · umíš naslouchat · navázat vztah se zákazníkem · práce na směny

Inference: the Bratislava posting (opened October 2026) is for "A new Vilgain store in Bratislava", so a Slovak store appears to be opening. The Praha posting has been open since October 2025.
