We are thrilled to share that Zippedi has been recently featured in La Tercera, one of Chile’s most prominent newspapers!
The article highlights the fantastic, long-standing partnership between Zippedi and our valued customer, Sodimac, focusing on their incredible commitment to driving innovation and enhancing the customer experience.
More Than a Client: A Strategic Partner
The feature dives into how strategic partnerships with startups like ours are helping retailers transform their in-store operations. As highlighted in the piece, our relationship with Sodimac dates back to 2019. Over the years, they have become much more than a client; they are a true strategic partner.
By continuously supporting our R&D processes, we have been able to co-create solutions that directly impact daily store operations and high-level corporate decision-making.
Meet “Tito”: Empowering Teams with AI
One of our favorite highlights from the article is the mention of how Sodimac’s store teams have embraced our technology—even affectionately naming our autonomous robot “Tito.” Operating at night, Tito navigates the store aisles to detect out-of-stock items and validate prices. By automating these essential but routine tasks, our technology frees up valuable time for Sodimac’s team members, allowing them to focus on what matters most: helping customers and ensuring product availability.
Expanding Across Latin America
The La Tercera article features a special shout-out to our VP of Customer Success, Sebastián Oyanedel Martínez. In the piece, Sebastián summarizes the impact of our collaboration:
“Thanks to this alliance, today our robots help customers and collaborators in all Sodimac stores in Chile, and we are expanding our service to the rest of the stores in Latin America.”
Thank You
We want to extend a massive thank you to Sodimac for this incredible partnership and for believing in the power of AI and robotics to revolutionize retail. We also want to thank La Tercera for telling our story and highlighting the real-world impact of our technology.
We remain dedicated to our mission of optimizing retail operations and look forward to continuing our expansion across Latin America and beyond!
