Platana & Planet 🌍

Our beliefs

The genesis of our story is the customer experience. Offering an irreproachable after-sales customer experience. Why do we do this? Because we believe that extending the life of products is no longer an option, and that retailers have a fundamental role to play in this process. Digitizing your after-sales service means contributing to the widespread adoption of repair.

Easy access to spare parts

Consumers are in favor of repair for ecological and economic reasons. The self-repair process needs to be simplified, from ordering parts to issuing instructions.

Our answer

At Platana, we're convinced that the adoption of repair services will depend on an optimized customer experience when the product is picked up, and an optimized execution of the repair by the retailer. The only way to achieve this is to digitalize the after-sales service. This also makes it possible to activate a number of financial optimization levers that are key to sustaining this approach and finding a profitable circular model.
