Finland's second Ideapark opened its doors in Oulu on the 31st of October 2014 and brought with it 25000 square meters of shopping space, 500 jobs and about 50 different businesses under the same roof in northern Oulu with such a rush of enthusiastic shoppers on its opening day it created nationwide news and media buzz in Finland.

Although the actual rush hour started on the opening day the people responsible for the opening of Ideapark Oulu had already been working their socks off for several months. While handling all other current matters coordinating the successful joint opening for about 50 different businesses was not a simple undertaking: "While consumer satisfaction is our core competence we have also always invested heavily on the satisfaction of our business customers at Ideapark, an essential part in this is that we provide fast and easy corporate customer service", says Petri Häli Shopping Centre Manager at Ideapark Oulu.

Pepron delivered a customer service solution based on Zendesk for Ideapark Oulu. Petri Häli continues: "Whether the issue was some kind of a practical current matter or for example information distribution to our website we have to be fast and reliable in order to guarantee continuing sales for our business customers, having modern customized customer service tools has significantly helped us in helping our business customers"
