Case Study: International Variety Retailer triples website sales with Elastic

International variety retailer deploys Elastic Enterprise Search on Elastic Cloud to enhance ecommerce operations and triple website sales

International Variety Retailer, a Dutch-based variety retailer with 750+ stores, needed to expand ecommerce and gain a better real-time view of sales, stock, promotions, and customer behavior. Its legacy, outsourced IT setup and growing online competition made it hard to support modern ecommerce operations, so it turned to Elastic to help unify and analyze business data across systems.

Elastic implemented Elastic Enterprise Search on Elastic Cloud, integrating data from legacy, cloud, and on-prem systems and supporting dashboards, observability, and stock monitoring for non-technical teams. As a result, International Variety Retailer improved stock visibility, responded faster to sales opportunities and outages, and tripled website sales while scaling ecommerce without straining budgets or its lean IT team.
