Redbox clients make the final cut at this year’s Ecommerce Awards 2019
It's great to hear that Redbox’s clients have made the finals at this year’s Ecommerce Awards.
The Awards, which are now in their eleventh year, are widely considered the best and most significant in the retail and ecommerce industry attracting hundreds of entries each year.
Saudi’s biggest pharmacy chain, Nahdi, is shortlisted in the Best Use of a Multichannel category, while The Folio Society is up for Specialist Ecommerce Site and Best Website Launch/Relaunch for design and UX - work that was carried out by Lewis, a Redbox company.
Nahdi: project snapshot
Redbox was tasked with delivering Nahdi a complete omnichannel commerce experience for its customers through retail stores and digital channels, across 143 cities. Its existing ecommerce platform was not able to fulfil the company’s future growth ambitions.
Redbox built a new omnichannel experience on Magento Commerce Cloud and Magento Order Management. The commerce capability provides Nahdi with a secure, flexible and scalable commerce foundation, while MOM allows the pharmacy retail chain to better manage its order information across its sales channels – web, mobile, stores and warehouse – giving Nahdi real-time visibility of its inventory.
