With over 60,000 products and dozens of brands, 3M distributes a broad range of products. The Challenge Enabling buyers with trustworthy self-service buying experiences As 3M buyers moved toward digital channels, enabling them with self-service purchasing experiences that could be trusted, was critical to support their global customer base. But buyers needed to be 100% confident they were purchasing a product that was correct in usage and compliant with safety policies and regulations of the given industry. "Today's buyers want to engage directly with vendors, on their own time. At 3M we see this as an opportunity to expand our DTC channels and provide digital experiences that make it easy to discover and purchase the right products for our buyer's needs." Ryan Satre, Senior Manager of Ecommerce Strategy, 3M Prior to Zoovu, 3M heavily relied on third-party specialists to manually copy and paste product content directly from PDFs into spreadsheets to organize product data to be ingested into their PIM, which was costly and inefficient for their extensive product catalog.
