Utrecht, April 2024
PLUS Supermarkets, the recipient of the Best National Grocer award in the Netherlands for two consecutive years, has once again raised the bar in retail excellence with the launch of its innovative eCommerce platform. This groundbreaking initiative is the result of a strategic partnership with digital transformation experts, Product League.
Exceptional Results
Officially launched in February 2024, the platform has already demonstrated impressive year-on-year growth in market share and online revenue. PLUS anticipates a rapid return on investment, as the transition from a monolithic to a composable architecture significantly reduces the total cost of ownership. The agility of the new system allows for frequent updates without the constraints of irregular release cycles, thereby fostering continuous innovation and enhancing customer satisfaction.
The constructive interaction of OutSystems, commercetools, and Contentful ensures an exceptional uptime of 99.99%, eliminating previous concerns about stability. The platform’s scalability is guaranteed through automated, data-driven scaling services. Notably, the addition of advanced features such as voice and barcode search capabilities were accomplished within a mere two-week sprint—a task that previously required months of development.
