Elevating Fibre2Fashion’s Analytics & User Intelligence with Optiblack

The Challenge

Fibre2Fashion, a global leader in textile industry intelligence and B2B services, faced critical data and analytics challenges that limited their growth and decision-making:

• Data Discrepancies: Significant mismatches between Google Analytics and Mixpanel data, especially in user counts and property tracking, led to uncertainty in performance measurement and campaign ROI.
• User Identification Issues: Inconsistent user registration, categorization, and tracking made it difficult to segment audiences, personalize experiences, and attribute conversions accurately.
• Analytics Implementation Gaps: Many Mixpanel properties (location, device info, browser) were missing or “not set,” reducing the value of behavioral insights and hindering cohort analysis.
• Complex Product Ecosystem: With multiple services (B2B marketplace, market intelligence, media), Fibre2Fashion needed unified, actionable reporting across a vast website and diverse user journeys.
• Privacy & Compliance: Evolving privacy requirements demanded a careful approach to data collection, user consent, and analytics tool integration.
