Case Study: Iceland Foods achieves instant archive search and stronger compliance with Preservica

Iceland Foods turns 50 years of archive records into searchable content in minutes with Preservica

Iceland Foods, a household name in British retail, faced significant challenges with its 50-year corporate archive. With digital content scattered and no way to search across collections like its 200 staff magazines, responding to internal queries and compliance requests like GDPR was a manual process taking days. Preservica's AI-powered Active Digital Preservation platform was implemented to address these discoverability and compliance issues.

The solution from Preservica, specifically its Enterprise Edition with AI Editions, transformed the archive. It enabled AI-powered OCR and search, turning days of manual work into queries completed in minutes. This provided auditable results for compliance and unified the scattered collections into one scalable platform. The measurable impact was a reduction in archive search time from one-to-two days down to merely minutes, while also creating a secure, accessible resource for the entire business.
