Actindo podiums at Best Retail Cases Awards 2023

Actindo's case study with German lifestyle brand Kapten & Son has won third place in the 'E-Commerce Tools' category at the Best Retail Cases Awards 2023, hosted in Cologne, Germany earlier this week.

The Best Retail Cases Awards 2023

The Best Retail Cases Awards honor innovative solutions used by brands, retailers and manufacturers to meet e-commerce challenges and open up new market opportunities - for example through technologies or omnichannel solutions. The nominated cases are selected by a top-class jury, and by the users themselves via online voting.

This year's award ceremony took place at the Schokoladenfabrik venue in Cologne, where 38 retail cases already nominated online were put to the vote in various categories.

Actindo used a customer example with Kapten & Son to present its Digital Operations Platform, Actindo Core1, and convincingly won third place in the category "E-Commerce Tool".

Kapten & Son, one of the fastest-growing fashion brands in Europe, found itself increasingly hindered by a fragmented IT landscape. Which is why it turned to Actindo in 2022 to implement a comprehensive project to renew its processes and IT architecture, using the Actindo Core1 digital operations platform.

With Actindo's IT solution, Kapten & Son can rely upon a fast-to-implement, scalable and highly flexible e-commerce platform. The lifestyle brand can now efficiently orchestrate its omnichannel strategy and enjoy significant productivity gains. These include:

• 23% productivity increase for customer service team
• 100% increase in order volume capacity, and up to 1,000% during peak periods such as Cyber Week

Actindo accompanied Kapten & Son in all phases of project implementation, and comprehensively contributed its many years of expertise from conception to implementation. The project was completed in just 9 weeks, without compromising the customer experience.
