Metro, one of Canada’s premier grocers, with over 950 food stores under multiple banners, firmly believes in a customer-centric approach that includes promoting health and well-being while providing customers with quality products. Metro offers its own line of high quality products at an affordable price.
As part of its customer focused approach, Metro has a large loyalty program featuring 5+ million households to which they strive to offer personalized, relevant weekly offers.
Metro was in need of a promotion and coupon solution that could support its specific requirements and future proof it against development costs as new functionality was required and new channels were added. In addition, Metro had a need to address its specific loyalty and targeted promotional requirements related loyalty point reward offers (bonus and multiplier) and single use coupons targeted to individual customers / households.
Supporting its commitment to providing a customer centric shopping experience, Metro required a promotion and coupon solution to seamlessly operate with its CRM system, which analyzes loyalty member purchases and selects relevant coupon offers for each member.
Metro also required the ability to select the best deal between promotions which overlapped on some of the same items. This would ensure customer satisfaction while also ensuring that unintended deep discounts were not applied due to multiple offers.
