Acuitis, founded in 2010 by Jonathan and Daniel Abittan, has more than 100 stores in France, Switzerland, Luxemburg, and North America. The brand has a strong creative concept in optical and hearing, with quality glasses and hearing aids at “very, very soft prices.”

The brand is actively developing an external growth strategy and has acquired Direct Optic, France’s leading omni-channel optician, and the Sensee Group, France’s leading online contact lens retailer. Through these acquisitions, “Acuitis accelerates its growth with the ambition to build the first French omni-channel group on the market,” explained the company in a release.

According to its president Jonathan Abittan, this operation makes the Acuitis group “the leader in optical eCommerce in France. Thanks to our network of 280 Acuitis and Direct Optic stores, we are ready to offer our 950,000 customers even more services and alternatives for their shopping experience.”

Challenges

Acuitis needed a more powerful platform to support their growth & new digital challenges

Acuitis is a brand with a strong concept that differentiates them from their competitors – and at the heart of this is the unique retail experience. Their main challenge was to recreate the same experience for their customers online, as they do in-store, through the right engagement channels.

Acuitis wanted to develop and implement a marketing automation strategy, with personalization at its core, in order to enhance the customer experience.

The previous vendor did not completely meet their needs, so they needed a more powerful platform that could support significant growth and new digital challenges.
