NEW YORK, September 20, 2016 /PRNewswire/ --
Pepperi, the mobile B2B commerce platform for brands and
wholesalers, today announced that SodaStream International Ltd.
(Nasdaq: SODA), the leading global manufacturer and distributor of
Sparkling Water Makers, has chosen Pepperi to optimize its
diversified sales and merchandising operations worldwide.
"We were looking for a single, global-ready B2B sales and retail
execution platform that would replace our disparate regional CRM
systems in each of the international markets we operate," said Nir
Rehav, Head of Global IT for SodaStream. "We needed a platform that
integrates CRM, order taking, retail merchandising, and direct
store delivery functionality into an easy-to-use mobile solution
with multi-language and multi-currency support; and we needed it to
be easily configurable to continually meet the ever-changing
requirements of our regional markets."
After a rigorous vendor evaluation process that included over a
dozen cloud CRM and retail execution solutions, SodaStream selected
Pepperi for its unmatched functional support of B2B sales via sales
reps, merchandisers, and route accounting staff. Pepperi also
emerged as top-of-class for its code-free configurability, offline
operation, ERP integration, and native deployment to any mobile
device - iOS, Android, and Windows.
"My team was able to set up Pepperi for our US pilot within a
couple of weeks" said George Bowley,
US IT Director for SodaStream. "Pepperi's magic lies in its
flexibility, which allows us to modify workflows, business rules,
and forms quickly and easily - without writing a single line of
code."
Kristen Anderson, Director of
Retail Operations for SodaStream, added: "As part of SodaStream's
Retail Operations 2016 key initiatives, we set forth to streamline
our communication methods and develop a corporate-driven in-store
strategy. Pepperi allows us to meet these goals, providing
our investors with insights into measurable key performance
indicators and return on investment."
"We are thrilled to add another world-leading brand to our
roster of enterprise clients" said Ofer Yourvexel, Pepperi's CEO.
"Pepperi was built on the premise that traditional CRM sales
systems - on-cloud and on-premise - just don't fit the bill when it
comes to transactional consumer goods field sales and
merchandizing; Sodastream's selection of Pepperi, alongside our
growing list of global consumer goods clients, is the best
testament to our premise."
