Background
The customer purchasing behavior changes towards individualization and personalization. To be in line with this trend, our client needed a digital solution to facilitate the purchase process and, in this way, to face the new challenges to ensure maximum customer satisfaction.
The core business of our client is vending machines for every need, an online shop for resellers as well as an Electronic Goods Issuing System.
In order to adapt to the client’s individual needs offering customer-tailored product catalogue and a very easy way to purchase goods online, Mimacom designed and implemented a solution that offers an individual and pleasant shopping experience.
