  • Case Study Empowering UAE’s Leading Dairy & Juice Company with Digital Commerce

    What started in 1991 as a venture by introducing plastic milk bottles to the UAE, completed significant milestones to become the first company to introduce functional dairy products into the UAE market. Al Rawabi has the vision to become a market leader in fresh dairy and juice products. An award-winning UAE-based company, it serves more than one million customers per day and is currently in its third decade of operations. The increasing consumer demand has also propelled Al Rawabi to open its doors across the UAE & Oman. Citytech empowered Al Rawabi to ace the digital space by reaching customers far and wide with an eCommerce store built on the powerful Adobe Commerce (Magento) platform.

  • Challenges Conquering the food and beverages market in the digital space

    • - Creating subscription services for products
    • - Products were delivered to only a few pre-defined locations in the UAE, leading to a small service area
    • - Absence of a robust mobile app to service tech-savvy customers
    • - Poor website performance, unsatisfactory user experience, and slow page load speed

    Solution Aiding Al Rawabi to Milk the benefits of Digital Commerce

    Creating a product subscription process periodically (daily, weekly, and monthly) enabled the customers to add products for various dates and set preferable delivery timeslots. The customization allowed customers to pay via different payment modes and renew/ pause/ resume/ cancel subscriptions, at their convenience. Based on their subscription preference, the Order is generated one day before delivery.

    The limitations of a brick-and-mortar store are immense. Al Rawabi’s products were delivered to only a few pre-defined locations in the UAE. To tackle this missed opportunity, geo-fencing polygons were created on Google Maps, that require validation if the map pointer is set outside the delivery zone.

    Surviving in the market today without the convenience of an app is a tough ask. Citytech created a mobile app on iOS and Android to streamline the order management of Al Rawabi. The Sales orders are moved to the Pick&Pack app, and the warehouse on receiving the order, packages the items and attaches the packing slips. The Delivery Executives load the items and mark them as “Out for Delivery”, from where it reaches the customers. The buyers receive in-app, Email, and SMS notifications for each action.

Strategy Ensuring Al Rawabi conquers the desired market domains

Despite being a market leader, Al Rawabi faced an uphill task to conquer the market due to the absence of a high-functioning digital front.
