Doelstelling
Costa Express supplies high quality coffee quickly and conveniently to over 8,000 self-serve coffee bar machines across the world. Their intelligent, barista-style technology attracts customers and serves as a direct marketing channel.
In order to take advantage of this potential, they engaged WORTH to build a platform that would:
- Enable the Costa Express marketing department to run digital campaigns
- Ensure high efficiency and deployment of marketing materials
- Enable the selective deployment of marketing materials remotely
- Automate machine updates, and captures sales information for business intelligence

“The campaign went live successfully in nearly 500 sites. With WORTH, we have set up a true and successful partnership to deliver this challenging project. A big thank you to all involved!”
