    CUSTOMER SUCCESS STORIES

    How PowerFood maintained a reputation for first-class service during rapid growth

    In recent years, PowerFood AG has deployed Actindo’s Core1 platform to support an explosive phase in the company’s growth. As Switzerland's leading sports nutrition brand, Core1 was deployed to connect 22 nationwide bricks-and-mortar stores with B2B and B2C sales channels: 

    • Support and centrally control company processes 
    • Network and map all processes 
    • Integrate individual requirements like a bonus points scheme

    "With Actindo, we found a partner that impressed us with its technical know-how and experience."

    - Reto Hugi, Managing Director of PowerFood AG

    Challenge:

    Following a hugely successful TV campaign, PowerFood experienced rapid growth in the number of orders it received for its sports nutrition products, across over 10,000 SKUs. This means that over 300,000 products are now dispatched annually from a central logistics facility via Swiss Post, including same-day, Saturday and express delivery.  

    One of PowerFood’s biggest challenges as a multi-channel retailer was to optimally connect a nationwide network of 22 bricks-and-mortar stores with various B2B and B2C online sales channels, while maintaining a reputation for first-class service. Plus integrate individual requirements such as a bonus points system.
