Carrefour improved order conversion in 30% after successfully replatforming to VTEX

As part of its digital transformation strategy, Carrefour Brazil undertook an ambitious project to become the country’s leading digital grocery. Accomplishing that goal required deploying a powerful new digital commerce solution, creating a complete migration roadmap, and engaging the right expertise to make such a complex project a success.

It would also require a cultural and process shift from monolithic operations — where the additions of any new functionality could take weeks or even months — to an environment of continuous delivery.

VTEX was chosen for the commerce platform and CI&T was tapped to lead the transformation effort. The net result? An on-time migration delivery that resulted in a 30% improvement in order conversion and a whopping 168% improvement in Net Promoter Score (NPS) while establishing a customer-centric, agile, and scalable architecture for future digital growth.

“The new platform raises the bar for Carrefour, with customer-centric processes and decisions. Our consumers’ omnichannel experience is not just a trend that we have followed, but the empowerment of consumers who want options in how to do their shopping. Furthermore, this is a significant step in Carrefour’s growth plans in e-commerce, in line with the company’s entire digitalization strategy in the country, which has been evolving rapidly in recent months”
