Vibram is a world-leading Italian manufacturer of soles and footwear known for its performance compounds, as well as its FiveFingers minimalist shoe. Vibram is a global business with presence across the US, Europe and APAC. Since partnering with Criteo in early 2017, Vibram has been successful in driving sales and constantly increasing their online retail revenue.
One of the main objectives for Vibram in 2018 is to maximize brand awareness by bringing relevant shoppers to the website and converting them into brand new customers. To help them engage with a wider audience, drive more traffic and generate revenue from new customers and lapsed visitors, Vibram decided to try Criteo Customer Acquisition as part of the team’s new customer acquisition strategy.
