"There will only be a successful future for the specialist trade with additional digital offerings", says Nicolaus Gedat, Managing Director of nmedia GmbH. "In our discussions at Ambiente, Christmasworld and Creativeworld, there was an extremely high demand for digital solutions. Both brands and retailers are very open to the subject. With its standards and services, nmedia offers the perfect basis for brands and retailers to realise their individual concepts when expanding their online business.”
nmedia offers the right solutions for industry and trade. For large retailers such as F.S. Kustermann GmbH Munich and W. WEITZ GmbH & Co. KG, the focus is particularly on good data quality. They are the be-all and end-all for a well-functioning digital network between brands and retailers. "The full halls at Ambiente, Christmasworld and Creativeworld clearly showed how important our industry platforms are. The personal exchange, good discussions and the haptic experience are irreplaceable", says Philipp Ferger, Managing Director of nmedia GmbH and Vice President Consumer Goods Fairs at Messe Frankfurt. "Our digital tools, which we offered with nmedia and in the area of digital retail presented by nmedia, were very well received by the trade. Interest in omnichannel retailing is growing and with our nmedia.hub services we can cover many of these very needs."
Digital retail presented by nmedia bundels up online expertise in one areal
In Galleria 1, and thus in the direct vicinity of Ambiente Dining, nmedia also presented the new "Digital Retail" area. Here, strong online brands such as Ebay, EK Service Group, Interxion, Kaufland Global Marketplace and nmedia were present and showed how digital business can be successfully established and professionally operated alongside stationary trade. The aim was to network retailers and suppliers in order to jointly expand digital trade and thus strengthen stationary trade. The participating brands not only presented themselves on site in a common area, but are also active on the online platform Ambiente Digital Extension.
