Overview
A UK-based supermarket chain launched its online store and wanted to improve customer experience and increase sales through website personalization. The online shop ran two weekly events where products would sell out quickly. Therefore, there was a need to monitor inventory levels, recommend substitutes for out-of-stock items, and alert shoppers when a product was back in stock.
The Challenge
The client needed a strategic partner to guide their personalization plans and provide the technology that meets the client’s unique business model. An essential requirement was strategic advisory services to help the business teams better understand personalization’s role across the customer journey, identify specific opportunities, and roll out the plan systematically.
The Solution
- Algonomy Engage™ allowed the team to experiment with content to guide visitors to the most relevant categories and campaigns based on their behavioral affinities and customer trends.
- Algonomy DeepRecs Natural Language Processing (NLP) generated recommendations markedly differently from the traditional collaborative filtering recommendation techniques that rely on historical events.
- Algonomy Discover™ helped to achieve their vision of delivering a cohesive experience to shoppers no matter how they interact with the site.
“Algonomy’s ability to personalize for unknown shoppers is key. We’re now successfully able to engage shoppers with deeper journeys, leading to a 10% higher average order value and a 46% lift in revenue per visitor. We’re also witnessing organic repeat visits, which is invaluable.”

- The client witnessed a 10% higher average order value and a 46% lift in revenue per visitor.
