KRDS has won the mandate of creating and maintaining Michelin Middle East and Africa website. Michelin holds forefront positions in every tyre market in the world. The brand is known for leveraging its technological leadership, capacity for innovation to produce high-quality products and services, across the world.
KRDS is building a brand new website for establishing Michelin’s digital footprint in the Middle East and Africa region. The site is being built on a WordPress platform.
This website will harbour expert informations and guidance about tyres, from what type of tyre to use for their vehicles and how to choose the perfect tyre as well. All of the information comes with detailed specifications about each and every type of tyre. There will be a separate section on the site which will provide dealer information and help locate the closest dealer to purchase car tyres.
Apart from this, KRDS is also tasked with building a chatbot which will appear on all the pages of the website. The bot will help the users in picking out the best tyre for their cars. It will play the role of a guide and will also handle requests from the users.
