Wells + IZO + Qualtrics

When customer feedback moves slower than the business, decisions get made without it. Wells set out to change that, and built a centralised Voice of Customer ecosystem that turns real-time signals into operational action across every business unit.

From fragmented tracking to a unified voice of customer ecosystem


For Portugal's leading health, beauty, and well-being retailer, understanding the customer has always been central to the business — but for years, the practice didn't match the ambition. Wells was monitoring NPS, but the process lacked scale, standardisation, and speed. Feedback reached decision-makers too slowly to drive action, and with no governance model in place, consistency across business units was impossible. What they needed wasn't more data — it was a system that could turn passive feedback into something operational leaders could act on in real time.

Proving the model, then scaling it everywhere


Wells partnered with IZO and adopted Qualtrics CX to build a centralised Voice of the Customer ecosystem from the ground up. The programme launched as a pilot in the Online and Optical segments, where the team designed a governance model, integrated collection channels across touchpoints, and rolled out dashboards to operational decision-makers. The approach worked. Today, every Wells business unit has embedded real-time customer feedback into daily decisions — and in-store service has emerged as the primary driver of recommendation, giving leadership a clear operational lever.
