Pieters continued her good form winning the women's Omloop Het Nieuwsblad. The team's next GC victory came courtesy of Wild, at the Tour of Chongming Island. Claudia Häusler secured the team's final overall victory of the 2014 season, winning the 2014 La Route de France.
On 24 September 2014 the team announced that they had secured a four-year sponsorship deal with a German hair care company. For the 2015 season the team was known as Team Liv–Plantur, with the men's team becoming Team Giant-Alpecin.
On 1 September 2014 it was announced that Kirsten Wild would leave the team for Team Hitec Products. Sabrina Stultiens was the only rider who joined the team for the 2015 season.
