Revitalizing Nespresso: Elevating Digital Excellence Together
Company Overview
Nespresso, a renowned brand in the coffee industry, specializes in premium coffee products, notably coffee machines and proprietary capsules. Recognized for quality and sustainability, Nespresso integrates recycling initiatives and ethical sourcing into its operations, providing a superior coffee experience for both home and professional use.
Seeking a digital transformation aligned with evolving business needs, Nespresso chose Codilar for its proven track record in delivering tailored eCommerce solutions. Over a three-year partnership, Codilar consistently exceeded expectations, showcasing expertise in website performance, user experience, and digital strategy—a decisive factor in the selection of Codilar for a comprehensive eCommerce revamp.
Objectives & Challenges
Nespresso faced the challenge of adapting its online presence to meet the sophisticated demands of the B2B sector. Seeking a comprehensive eCommerce solution, they aimed to enhance website performance, user experience, and overall digital strategy to align with evolving business needs.
Managing Product Variants: As Ooka's product range expanded, so did the complexity of handling variants with outdated workflows. Showcasing and updating accurate data for products with numerous variants (up to 10) strained the website, affecting product grouping, navigation, and overall user experience. Inefficient order management practices affected stock updates and overall inventory accuracy, posing hurdles to operational efficiency.
Product Subscription: The lack of an efficient product subscription model introduced challenges in effectively managing recurring customer requests and related information. Ineffectiveness in handling customer databases and product subscriptions impacted Ooka's service delivery capabilities, resulting in insecure payment processes, adversely affecting customer relations and overall business revenue.
Apply Multiple discounts: Despite Ooka's commitment to affordability, applying discounts became a source of inconvenience. The site, limited to applying one discount at a time, caused frustration for enthusiasts seeking to apply multiple discounts to a single product. This limitation adversely affected sales and contributed to increased cart abandonment.
Shipping Management: Ooka faced considerable difficulties in managing shipping operations, including dealing with high shipping costs, disruptions in shipping routes, and limited knowledge about international shipping. This led to increased operational expenses, delays in international shipments, and logistical issues in coordinating split shipments, impacting Ooka's overall business.
These challenges, while posing obstacles such as brand inconsistencies, customer confusion, heightened operational costs, diminished performance, and compromised customer experiences, prompted Ooka to proactively consolidate efforts and seek a sustainable path forward.
