Happmobi Case Studies: LXP AND LMS FOR SPORTING GOODS RETAIL
Grupo SBF is Latin America’s biggest name in sporting goods retail, bringing together heavyweight brands such as Centauro, Fisia (Nike’s official distributor in Brazil) and NWB, a leader in digital sports content.
With operations spanning physical and online retail to distribution and content production, Grupo SBF needed a digital corporate education strategy capable of integrating and personalizing training for its more than 9,000 employees.
With such diverse brands and operations, the central challenge was creating a flexible, robust digital corporate university, capable of respecting each brand’s specificities while ensuring every professional stayed aligned with the group’s strategic and cultural guidelines.

Operational differences between brands, each with distinct products, processes and audiences.
Need for integrated communication, using the platform not just for training, but also for strategic announcements.
Creation of personalized learning paths for salespeople, store leaders, corporate teams and NWB content creators.
Full traceability, ensuring training analysts and managers had complete visibility into employee adherence and performance.
With these demands, it became clear that Grupo SBF needed a digital corporate education platform capable of unifying, personalizing and scaling its educational strategies.
