The challenge

Lactalis manages digital experiences across a portfolio of 124 brands serving multiple regions. Fragmented tooling and processes made it difficult to maintain brand consistency and localized content across that global presence.

The solution

Lactalis replatformed onto Contentful for centralized, reusable content and templated site builds. Marketing teams could update content after a 30-minute training, and branding changes could be made in one place and propagate across brands and locales.

The user experience is the most important part of Contentful. Our Marketing team was not used to modifying content via a CMS, but with a 30-minute training, they can update content within Contentful, which makes the replatform a success.
