Hospitality

Challenge

By 2015, mobile-first interactions had fundamentally reshaped customer expectations, especially in the luxury hospitality sector. For brands like Jumeirah, where affluent, on-the-go travellers expected seamless, premium digital experiences, the need for a responsive, fully functional mobile Ecommerce solution was paramount. Jumeirah’s existing mobile platform was limited, lacking responsive design, transactional functionality, and integration with its loyalty programme.

Key challenges included:

Transformation & Impact

Response

Digitas appointed Adeeb Khan as Product Manager to architect a transformative mobile experience, leading the product strategy, client relationship, and delivery of an integrated, responsive Ecommerce experience.

The strategy unified Jumeirah’s digital ecosystem, enhanced customer conversion, and aligned seamlessly with the brand’s standards of luxury and sophistication.

Strategy & Results

A comprehensive strategy was executed, prioritising mobile commerce, seamless loyalty programme integration, advanced data analytics, and a unified omnichannel experience to elevate customer engagement and drive digital growth.
