Lavazza invests in customer-centricity with customer feedback analysis provider Wonderflow
Amsterdam, April 29, 2020 – Lavazza, one of the world’s most important coffee roasters, and Wonderflow, a Dutch-Italian scale-up specialized in customer feedback analysis, today announced the renewal of their partnership. Lavazza was originally introduced to Wonderflow through the Italian Food and Beverages program of venture capital company Plug and Play. The partnership fits Lavazza’s focus on selecting the best resources and tools to benefit their customers.
Lavazza’s mission to deliver the best experience to its customers led the company to invest in customer feedback analytics. Since the last quarter, any comment made by customers (such as online reviews) is automatically analyzed through Natural Language Processing (NLP) and used to promote improvements and change. The insights obtained from the data will be used by the company to further increase its customer-centricity by optimizing its product development strategy, its external communication, and its customer service.[/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]Riccardo Osti, CEO at Wonderflow, spoke highly of the partnership: “I am extremely happy to see that another amazing Italian company, and the undisputed global leader in the coffee industry, has renewed its collaboration with Wonderflow. Lavazza has been at the forefront of innovation for decades, investing equally to produce the highest quality coffee products as well as delivering the best experience to its customers. Our collaboration is a natural next step, using Europe’s top-performing Artificial Intelligence for customer feedback to continuously become more and more customer-centric.”[/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]Andrea Zorzetto, Managing Partner at Plug and Play adds: “A partnership like this really underlines our mission as Plug and Play, to respond to our Corporate Partners needs, finding the best in class startups.
