From Data Pitfalls to Data Excellence
Amid third-party cookie deprecation, building signal resilience was at the forefront of Danone Nutricia’s data strategy. The company recognised that the ability to unify and transform data into actionable intelligence would be key to competitive advantage in a dynamic market.
Moreover, impending reforms to privacy legislation, the introduction of AI regulation and pervasive consumer concerns regarding commercial data management practices necessitated a CDP-led technology transformation.
Danone Nutricia sought to implement a CDP that could stitch together disparate data to create an enriched single customer view. The ability to understand individual health needs across pivotal customer journey stages would enable the brand to provide holistic health solutions with consumer welfare in mind.
Delivering Holistic Health Solutions through a Multibrand Strategy
Danone Nutricia’s diverse audience, product and brand portfolio enables the company to support the nutritional needs of individuals at every age. In turn, this provides Danone Nutricia a distinct competitive advantage through a higher average customer lifetime value that can be realised through extending loyalty and retention. To capitalise upon the revenue potential available via the implementation of a multibrand strategy, Danone Nutricia sought to acquire holistic customer insights to inform connected experiences that were personalised, always on and accessible across its vast brand portfolio.
“With a customer-centric brand ethos, Tealium’s innovative CDP was a natural fit due to our shared values. In a complex market, Tealium elevated Danone Nutricia’s data-driven CX strategy to address multifaceted requirements; including, privacy compliance, signal resilience, multibrand marketing and consumer welfare. The vast capabilities of Tealium’s solution enabled us to connect the dots in our multibrand portfolio to weave together a seamless and coherent customer journey designed to meet the distinct health needs of diverse individuals. With Tealium at the heart of our marketing operations, Danone Nutricia is empowered to maximise its potential through our commitment to advancing the health outcomes of our valued customers.”

The Path to Value with Tealium and CHEP Network
By implementing Tealium’s innovative CDP, Danone Nutricia established the foundation from which to realise shared stakeholder ambitions across its complex organisation. Next, CHEP Network sought to empower Danone Nutricia to identify areas of improvement from which to accelerate the ROI of the company’s CDP journey. With Tealium’s CDP implemented at the heart of Danone Nutricia’s marketing operations, four initial use cases were identified:
- Audience suppression
- Audience retargeting of lapsed samplers
- New member onboarding
- Retargeting of abandoned cart users
Personalisation at Scale through Automating Complexity
Tealium’s CDP provided Danone Nutricia an enriched 360-degree view of each individual customer. Moreover, an automated process enabled the identification of each customer’s need and position in their own health journey.
With the benefit of real-time customer intelligence, Danone Nutricia could nurture product uptake based upon segmentation, purchase behaviour and product usage compliance. Consequently, the brand was able to fulfil its corporate responsibility obligation to enhance consumer welfare by encouraging product usage compliance to enable health dividends in the lives of individual customers.
As effective customer onboarding is key to accelerating lifetime value, Danone Nutricia sent targeted and personalised eDM communications during the first 100 days post-acquisition to encourage customers to remain on their individualised health journey. In turn, this approach empowered customers to establish patterns and habits that were beneficial to their unique health goals.
Results: The Importance of Selecting the Right Use Cases
Post-implementation of Tealium’s CDP, Danone Nutricia yielded spectacular time to value. Lapsed customer and abandoned cart trigger-based activation translated to 10% of eCommerce sales, and was the key contributor to 28% of eCommerce revenue growth. Moreover, the ROI of the CDP investment stands at a remarkable 418% within the two-year period following implementation.
In the 2023 financial year, Tealium’s technology led to Danone Nutricia’s attainment of 250% of forecasted revenue.
A snapshot of Danone Nutricia’s individual brands showcases each contributing to enhanced portfolio returns. For example, AptaGrow has risen to a 32.9% market share, and Souvenaid sales leaped to 60% above forecast, with a 400%+ increase in sample requests.
