THE CHALLENGE
Deliver a seamless customer experience, while adding a few surprises along the way
Today, Krispy Kreme is reaching a bigger audience than ever by bringing joy to every step along the customer journey. Customers are now easily connecting to their delicious sweet treats through an online store on the website and mobile devices with interactions as unique as the brand.
The multidisciplinary team - strategy, UX, design, and development - used a customer-centric and iterative approach to design, develop, and optimize the KrispyKreme.com website. Visitors can search for their closest shop, check for Hot Light hours, order their favorite dozens, start a fundraiser or buy branded merchandise. Each experience is carefully engineered to connect every aspect of the technical framework with the customer in mind.
There are many parts to every business, bringing those together in multiple cohesive touchpoints presents a unique challenge.
For Krispy Kreme, the answer is a custom middleware solution that lives in between the client-side and the interactions with front-end and back-end requests.
This centralizes the logic into a client-owned layer reducing code redundancy, unifying customer data, and securing access to all back-end resources.
The flexible design system for the app and website easily expanded to support and visually execute the new menu strategy. This provides a consistent experience for customers on their phone, at the counter, or in their cars at the drive-thru.
This level of content and quality control keeps all visual elements – food, drinks, pricing, and special offers - streamlined and presented with accurate brand standards. Shops now have the control to support customization with localized themes and season availability while maintaining brand standards indoors and out.
