Case Study: Swiss department store Globus achieves 85% employee reach and improved engagement with Beekeeper

Globus - Customer Case Study

Globus, a Swiss department store group with 13 stores and roughly 3,000 employees, faced major internal-communication gaps: 90% of staff had no corporate email or intranet access, information relied on printed bulletin boards and top‑down cascades, and stores could not communicate directly with headquarters. To address this, Globus selected Beekeeper’s mobile internal-communications platform and launched a branded app, “GlobusInside.”

Beekeeper implemented a mobile, easy‑to‑use platform with custom branding and analytics; today 90% of daily operative communication occurs on Beekeeper, top‑down messages reach up to 85% of employees, and more than two‑thirds of staff are active users. Beekeeper replaced most bulletin boards and SharePoint for communications, boosted cross‑selling and PlusCard signups through peer sharing and competition, flattened hierarchies, and delivered measurable engagement and visibility via its analytics dashboard.
