Case Study / Olymel

Building a B2B platform to better support sales and partners

Impact

In a context where Olymel needed to better reach its B2B audiences and support its sales teams, the company required a platform aligned with the complex realities of the foodservice market.

We supported the creation of a structured digital ecosystem based on the needs of different segments. By simplifying access to product information and developing practical tools to support decision making, we enabled users to quickly find the right products.

This approach transformed the platform into a true sales enablement tool.

Result traffic doubled within the first month after launch, four B2B segments were addressed with tailored experiences and more than 12 specialized tools were deployed to support users. Proof that a well designed platform can accelerate adoption and support commercial performance.

The Mandate

A leading Canadian producer and processor of pork and poultry products, Olymel sought to strengthen its digital presence within the foodservice industry. The organization partnered with adviso to define a digital strategy, select the right technology platform and support the development of a digital ecosystem tailored to the needs of distributors, restaurant chains, hotels, institutions and other HRI (Hotels, Restaurants and Institutions) stakeholders.

Following workshops and consultations with numerous internal and external stakeholders, adviso developed a comprehensive roadmap aimed at supporting the commercialization of Olymel’s extensive product portfolio, simplifying access to product information and enabling both sales teams and distribution partners to better serve their customers.

The engagement included digital strategy development, platform selection, vendor evaluation, user experience design, content architecture, lead generation strategy and the creation of an exclusive portal for foodservice professionals across Canada.

I’d like to give a big thank-you to the entire team at adviso that helped us with this project. As a professional team with competencies in many disciplines, you were able to understand our challenges and needs. I really appreciated the synergy of our relationship and would enthusiastically recommend you as a collaborator.
