Clever giftcards

In 2020, revitalised and highly successful retailer Cervera joined with For One in a business partnership, exploring opportunities to add new business and revenues. We ended up in innovating, developing and launching two innovative business areas in rapid succession: Cervera Vintage and Cervera Företag (B2B).

Following the immediate success, we saw an opportunity to add yet more potential revenue for Cervera Företag and came up with Cervera Giftshop, a corporate gifting concept that makes giving smooth while the receiving experience becomes more personal, fun and exclusive thanks to a curated selection of high-quality products from iconic brands. We put the concept on high-speed development and launched in October 2021.

Henrik Örnstedt, Business area director, Cervera Företag (at the time) says:

Customers love this. Its win-win for everyone involved and, best of all, its a clever repackaging of existing Cervera assets and skills making it a low cost, high return venture.

In close collaboration with the great people at Cervera, this solution was innovated and developed by a multidisciplinary case team from For One. One key member of the team, creative strategist Georg Sievert, reflects on the project:

"Imagine the feeling when a surfer catches the perfect wave. That's the Cervera Giftshop experience. In an ocean of potential gifts, we present the receiver with a curated selection of high-quality products from iconic brands. Gifts that he or she actually desires and the 'donate to charity' alternative guarantees that someone in need will benefit. Everybody wins."

Retailer of the year. Again.

With a new business and brand concept that started rolling out in 2019, Elon rapidly transformed into a major player in the Nordic market for home appliances. In November 2021, when this article is written, The Elon Group is still showing wonderful progress. Two years in a row Elon has been appointed “Retailer of the year” in Sweden.

Christian Dahlborg, CMO at Elon Group, summarizes:

"We have had a fantastic journey since reinventing Elon in 2019. The brand is stronger than ever and we are growing rapidly in all channels."

In 2018/2019, a multidisciplinary For One team worked side by side with the board of directors and management teams of Elon Group AB to reshape the strategies and concept.

Anders Björk, Creative Director at For One, recalls:

“We identified an opportunity for a more compassionate, humanistic and service-minded brand with a wider offering and customer reach.”

The list of initiatives and activities to transform the Elon business and brand is long. It included new business and brand strategy, assortment strategies, marketing strategy, e-com strategy, store concepts, brand identity, service development, internal alignment, and much much more.

Jakob Lindberg, team leader at For One, says:

"This was an epic team effort from everyone involved. I am so proud of what was achieved in record time and how well it has all worked out for Elon over the years!"
