WHAT WAS THE MAIN BUSINESS CHALLENGE NEEDING TO BE ADDRESSED?

How do you manage to guarantee a seamless connection between online and offline in retail spaces? For Breuninger, one of Europe’s leading multichannel department stores for fashion, and lifestyle, the challenge at the flagship store in Nuremberg was to create a maximum of service and customer orientation as well as a consistently high-quality brand experience – both online and offline.

The goal was to create the optimal mix of analog and digital concepts to create a consistent shopping experience. Customers should be met and helped at all levels, whether in the retail area or online. The goal was to create a true retail experience.

The concept of the Breuninger store is designed to give customers orientation, inspire them and enable them to experience the highest possible level of service. The modern look of the store design and digital screens should find a harmonious balance and thus make the offer, the presentation and the services an impressive experience for the customer.

HOW WAS THE PROBLEM SOLVED? WHICH SOLUTIONS WERE DEVELOPED AND / OR
IMPLEMENTED?

Our solution is an Omnichannel concept that takes the shopping experience to a new level. In addition to shop-in-shop worlds, the Breuninger store in Nuremberg offers digital touchpoints where customers can get information and advice.

Numerous smart stations answer customers‘ questions about product availability. The system also finds sizes or product variations in other stores. Service staff can be called at the stations and waiting times are greatly reduced. Digitally networked changing rooms are a further feature of the Omnichannel concept, as are Wayfinding Steles, which allow customers to find their way around the store. The merge between on- and offline is also continued in the Click&collect service, online reservations for consultations, change tailoring or beauty rooms. Digital highlights such as curved LED walls and screens provide a high-quality presentation of the product worlds and create a seamless transition between online and offline shopping for Breuninger.

THIS SOLUTION?
