Serving Up Personalization: How Nestlé Unlocked the Value of Years of Content with AI

Customer Stories • September 4, 2025 • Written by: Carol He

How Nestlé Turned Untapped Content Into Scalable Engagement with Breinify

In today’s competitive market, personalized digital experiences are key to customer retention and growth. Nestlé, a global food and beverage leader, saw the opportunity to connect more meaningfully with consumers through rich content like recipes and wellness insights.

Across sites like GoodNes, Very Best Baking, and El Mejor Nido, Nestlé had built a deep library of curated content but much of it remained underutilized. While increased engagement had already proven to boost sales and retention, the manual effort required to scale personalization across brands, languages, and audiences made execution difficult.

To solve this, Nestlé partnered with Breinify to implement AI-powered personalization—enabling smarter use of content at speed, without added headcount, tech overhauls, or heavy IT involvement.

The Challenges

Nestlé aimed to boost customer engagement across its digital websites by personalizing experiences to individual preferences and needs. However, their existing approach faced several key challenges:

Operational and Structural Barriers

Strict security and compliance requirements demanded lightweight, low-risk solutions. At the same time, managing multiple brands, languages, and audiences made consistent personalization across sites nearly impossible.

Limited Scalability and Manual Processes

Personalization efforts were generic and difficult to scale across brands and channels. Content curation was highly manual, requiring significant time from teams already constrained by a lack of embedded data analysts and heavy IT dependencies—slowing innovation and speed to market.

Underutilized Content

Despite having over 1,000 evergreen recipes, most remained hidden from users due to limited surfacing capabilities and bandwidth.

Despite strong content and a clear vision, Nestlé’s personalization was hindered by manual processes and resource constraints. The challenge was delivering smarter, scalable personalization in an easy way—without adding headcount or rebuilding their tech stack.

Technical Implementations
