Real Madrid Retail Case Study
VISION:
Legends was appointed in 2020 by Real Madrid CF (“RMCF”) to deliver a global omnichannel retail program that includes a brand new Official Online Store, the relaunch of four official stores in Madrid, and the delivery of a new Flagship Megastore at the club’s iconic home, the Estadio Santiago Bernabéu in Madrid, when its redevelopment is completed.
PROJECT:
Having partnered with RMCF since 2018 when Legends was appointed to provide strategic insight and guidance into optimising commercial opportunities in the redevelopment of the Estadio Santiago Bernabéu, we understood the importance of putting the fan experience at the centre of the business. By focusing on the goal of building a true omnichannel experience, we took a major step toward the vision of a comprehensive shopping experience, online and in-store for all Socios, Madridistas, and fans at home and around the world.
