The Challenge

Wine Connection is known in the SEA region for its wines and the effortless user experiences it offers via its digital platform. As more customers in the region preferred buying wines and similar beverages online via its eCommerce website, Wine Connection wanted to improve the performance and speed of its digital solution to serve its customers with compelling online experiences. As they leveraged Magento open source platform for their current multi-site needs, the digital solution faced performance issues with  slow loading time of web pages especially during promotional campaigns and peak traffic times. Their team wanted to implement the modern and competitive capabilities of Adobe Commerce Cloud to improve UX and offer peak performances at all times. 

 

In terms of the UI/UX design, Wine Connection’s current digital experience was not in line with their current brand image and guidelines. Moreover, hosting of their legacy digital solution was  separately managed on AWS which required high maintenance. 

THE GOAL

The primary goal of this project was to develop a multi-site eCommerce solution for Wine Connection, driven around their target audiences and brand values. leveraging Adobe Commerce Cloud. Their team wanted to implement several features and functionalities of Adobe Commerce, including a multi-location single ecommerce solution to support its websites in Singapore, Malaysia, and Thailand. Our team conducted a site audit to understand the key areas which need improvisation, and then revamped the design of the website to offer tailored and brand-centric eCommerce experiences. 

Other significant goals and objectives included:

  • Implemented Adobe Analytics and Reports to assist with insights and reporting analytics around market trends and user behaviors and preferences.
  • Integrate gift cards and reward systems to Adobe Commerce Cloud to boost user engagement.
  • Seamlessly integrate with competitive third-party CMS, OMS and inventory management systems to offer a consistent experience to users and their workforce. 
  • Implement and integrate popular region-based payment solutions for easy payment and checkout experiences. Also implement a custom payment solution of Thailand’s Kasikorn Bank.
