Mall Plaza incorporates innovation into its structure with the support of INNSPIRAL
THE CHALLENGE
In 2012, one of Chile’s leading retailers set out to embed innovation into its organizational structure to sustain its market leadership. Mall Plaza enlisted the support of INNSPIRAL to address this challenge collaboratively.
THE SOLUTION
INNSPIRAL commenced by establishing a governance framework and an innovation department. Subsequently, a portfolio of projects was devised, focusing on delivering value to end customers. These initiatives encompassed two main areas: optimizing store operations for cost efficiency and implementing solutions to enhance the customer experience. In the former, efforts were directed towards initiatives such as energy-efficient air conditioning and innovative green architectural solutions, where Mall Plaza led the way. In the latter, the aim was to bolster the retailer’s offerings for both tenants and end customers.
THE OUTCOME
After three years of collaboration, Mall Plaza had successfully ingrained innovation into its operations, enhancing its offerings for both tenants and end customers. Concurrently, the company had laid the groundwork for the future of retail in Chile, emphasizing the importance of prioritizing the customer experience, thus enabling it to maintain its leadership position.
