Maxeda //automates 90% of its signage// and standardizes its displays across more than 330 stores
With PiiVO, Maxeda has replaced manual processes with a centralized platform. Teams now have access to reliable, compliant, and automatically generated signage, both at headquarters and in stores.
The Maxeda challenge: standardizing signage across a network of over 330 stores
Before PiiVO, each brand in the group used its own methods to create signage. Teams worked with disconnected tools, leading to numerous manual tasks, errors, and significant inconsistency between stores.
The challenges before PiiVO:
- Time-consuming processes
Signs were created using Excel files, Word mail merges, and manual processing. - Information difficult to keep up to date
Data was not synchronized with central systems, which made updates complicated. - Inconsistent signage
Each store adapted its materials according to its own practices, with no real common standard. - Frequent errors
Teams had to manually check prices, text, and product information. - Team frustration
Legacy tools caused frequent malfunctions and wasted time, both at headquarters and in stores.

Talk to our technical teamEverything is based on rules you configure during onboarding: document format, media type, originating store, department, and more. Once these rules are set, Printer applies them automatically to every incoming document. If a PDF matches a strip format, it is sent to the laser printer using the correct tray. If it is a small label format, it is routed to the roll printer. If it is a large format, it goes to the plotter. No user intervention is required.
