Innovation in Digital Wayfinding for an Unmatched Shopping Experience

Parque Arboleda, a prominent shopping center in Pereira, Colombia, owned by the Chilean company Parque Arauco, has transformed the shopping experience by incorporating innovative digital wayfinding solutions. With an area of more than 41,000 square meters, this vibrant destination offers a wide variety of shopping, dining, and entertainment options, combining both local and international brands.

2022: The Beginning of a New Era in Navigation

In 2022, ViaDirect launched an exciting project at Parque Arboleda, installing 5 Pélikan kiosks with multiple screens, designed to provide an interactive and accessible experience for all visitors. Each kiosk is composed of:

  • A 75’’ screen on the back, used for advertising displays.
  • A 43’’ screen on the front, showing dynamic content related to the center, including events and seasonal campaigns.
  • A 43’’ touch screen, angled and accessible for people with reduced mobility, equipped with ViaDirect’s digital wayfinding software.

2024: The Introduction of ViaDirect’s Mobile Map

In 2024, to further enhance the shopping experience, Parque Arboleda introduced ViaDirect’s mobile solution. Visitors can now access the center’s digital map directly from their smartphones without needing to download any apps. By simply scanning a QR code, users gain full access to the ViaDirect wayfinding system, with the ability to track their location in real-time via a blue GPS point. This system greatly facilitates navigation within the shopping center, allowing visitors to quickly locate stores and points of interest, significantly optimizing the shopping experience.

Moreover, to plan their visit in advance, customers can explore the center’s layout through ParquePlus. This website integrates ViaDirect’s 3D map, which ultimately saves time and enhances the overall shopping experience.

Complete Solutions for Effortless Navigation

Furthermore, visitors to Parque Arboleda have access to interactive kiosks, ViaDirect Mobile, and ViaDirect Web. These solutions not only optimize navigation but also improve the shopping experience and increase the operational efficiency of the shopping center.
