ABC Vitamins is a retailer specializing in various health and wellness products, including vitamins, supplements, minerals, herbs, sports nutrition, diet, and energy products. It aims to provide a wide range of high-quality products to support the health and wellness goals of its customers. ABC Vitamins operates through both brick-and-mortar stores and an online platform, offering expert advice and a personalized shopping experience to help customers make informed choices about their health and nutrition needs. With a strong emphasis on customer service and education, ABC Vitamins positions itself as a go-to destination for those looking to improve their health and well-being.

The activities and outputs were executed over 10 days.

Customer data is underutilized for personalizing shopping experiences.

Outdated and fragmented in-store technology significantly obstructs the realization of a true omni-channel experience.

ABC is threatened by online competition from traditional retailers like Walmart, and CVS and start-ups like Flo, Ritual, Persona, and Rootine.

After uncovering goals, pain points, and user needs through the stakeholder immersion workshop and onsite observation, we ideated opportunities that addressed the user needs. We organized the opportunities into workstreams and by value and effort based on our expertise and through collaboration with key members of ABC vitamins.

To envision the future state, we leveraged the opportunities to map out an enhanced user journey between customers and Health Enthusiasts.

We presented our research and recommendations in April 2022. The roadmap and opportunities we presented were assessed by ABC Vitamins against their internal roadmap. New work was discussed between ABC Vitamins and my company, but ultimately no formal work followed due to budget restrictions.
