Shiseido Corp. - Global E-commerce Architectural Support & Composable Strategy
Providing long-term architectural guidance and designing a future-ready composable storefront solution for a global cosmetics leader.
The challenge
Shiseido required ongoing high-level architectural support for their global core e-commerce codebase and needed a forward-thinking strategy to evolve their digital presence towards a more flexible, composable architecture to meet future business goals.
Our solution
In partnership with Merkle, ZaUtre provided Shiseido Corp. with over 4 years of architectural support for their core codebase. ZaUtre architects also designed a composable storefront solution to replace the bulk architecture, aligning with Shiseido's 2030 global business vision.
Results
Provided stable architectural support for numerous global sites and delivered a strategic design for a next-generation composable storefront, enabling Shiseido to pursue their long-term digital transformation goals.
Project Overview
Shiseido Corporation is a global leader in the cosmetics industry. ZaUtre, in collaboration with partners like Merkle, has provided long-term, high-level architectural support and strategic design services to help shape Shiseido’s global e-commerce landscape.
The Challenge in Detail
The engagement with Shiseido involved two main components:
- Ongoing Architectural Support: Providing consistent architectural guidance and support for the core codebase that underpins Shiseido’s numerous global e-commerce sites, ensuring stability and scalability.
