Zero friction onboarding and collaboration:
- Colgate-Palmolive, the global leader in oral, skin, and pet care, continues expanding with VTEX. After successful B2B launches of PCA Skin Professional and Colgate Oral Professional in the US, Colgate recently launched Oral Professional in Switzerland, its first European B2B site on VTEX.

We're excited to support Arcor as it expands TOKIN across the region and continues to enhance its capabilities to drive growth.
- Decathlon, a global leader in sporting goods retail with over 1,700 stores across 64 countries, leveraged VTEX's Sales App in Brazil to enhance its omnichannel strategy and create a seamless shopping experience across both physical and digital stores. By integrating their sales channels, Decathlon allows customers to purchase items not in local stock by accessing a unified inventory across all stores. The VTEX Sales App enabled personalized customer interactions, real-time stock visibility, and flexible checkout, ensuring a faster, more agile shopping experience.
Single control panel for every order:
- Bemol, one of Brazil's largest retailers, successfully migrated its entire operation to VTEX, including its B2C franchise and headless app, seeking a scalable platform to unify operations and introduce financial solutions like Bemol Store Credit and Bemol PIX. During the rollout, conversion rates increased by 12% and average revenue per session by 33%. After full migration, organic traffic rose 8%, supported by an up to 56% faster load time on mobile. These improvements enhance the user experience and strengthen Bemol's expansion across Brazil, positioning it for further growth with VTEX.
- Hearst, one of the world's largest media companies, has integrated with Sephora using VTEX's multi-site architecture and developer cloud, VTEX IO, to launch a seamless digital marketplace. Now featured in top lifestyle publications like Women's Health, Cosmopolitan, Harper's Bazaar, Men's Health and Prevention, this integration transforms the reader experience—allowing users to purchase Sephora products directly from articles. With over 8,500 products available through Sephora's Beauty Insider loyalty program, Hearst is redefining how media connects with commerce.

Enhanced with multi-cart management features, it empowers sales associates to serve their consumers with more personalized experiences and to offer value-added services like extended warranties. VTEX Sales App improved navigation, search, and customizable displays, boost efficiency, while new integrations with Mercado Pago and Cielo simplify payments across Latin America.
Commerce on auto-pilot and co-pilot:
- Hinode, a Latin American leader in beauty, fragrances, and wellness, migrated its B2B operations from a legacy platform to VTEX to modernize and boost efficiency. Already successful with its B2C operations in Brazil and Mexico on VTEX, Hinode unified both B2C and B2B under a single platform for scalability. Using VTEX's API-first architecture, they enhanced the reseller experience with personalized checkout, point-based purchasing, and flexible delivery options. Since implementing VTEX's SmartCheckout, Hinode's conversion rate increased by more than 5x. We're excited to support Hinode's continued growth across channels.
- VTEX Ad Network is expanding its media kit with new ad types for diverse formats, such as sponsored products in search auto-complete and product galleries, boosting visibility and customer engagement. Also, our ads will now effectively reach audiences on their preferred mobile devices, with upcoming features including product recommendation ads and sponsored banners aimed at engaging shoppers during the consideration phase. Lastly, we're simplifying ad performance measurement and visualization, enabling advertisers to easily export campaign data and insights with just a few clicks. VTEX Ads Network continues to partner with leading publishers such as Fast Shop, Grupo Drogarias Pacheco e São Paulo, and Zona Sul.
- VTEX Data Pipeline, the secure data-sharing service that offers our customers seamless access to all their commerce data without expensive custom integrations, now offers additional data models for catalog, promotion, and external marketplace data. Data Pipeline is now compatible with any preferred data warehouse, BI tools, and CRM systems, enabling the delivery of VTEX commerce data precisely wherever customers need it. All customers can now leverage our new data models to create a unified view of their commerce operations.
- VTEX Pick and Pack incorporated new fulfillment solutions. These improvements include the implementation of smart store selection, optimized product location, and multi-picking capabilities, all designed to enhance logistical efficiency. Our upgraded admin interface now provides real-time order tracking and instantaneous notifications, while the AI-powered returns module facilitates expedited customer feedback. These advancements position VTEX customers' logistics as a strategic advantage, ultimately delivering a superior shopping experience that fosters consumers' loyalty and retention.
The development platform of choice for digital commerce:
- Fast Shop, a leading Brazilian retailer with 85 stores and 15 distribution centers, chose VTEX to replace its costly, inflexible legacy platform. With VTEX, Fast Shop has lowered its total cost of ownership, expanded into new channels like B2B, and gained access to a robust third-party ecosystem. Now, all operations—stores, online, marketplace, and B2B—are integrated into one platform. They've also developed a custom app for in-store teams, enhancing the customer journey with personalized experiences and their Fast Prime loyalty program.

Business Outlook

VTEX is well-positioned to capture an attractive market opportunity, and we remain encouraged by our sales momentum and operational leverage. We will face tougher GMV comparisons in the fourth quarter of 2024, which will ease by year-end.

In this context, we are targeting FX neutral YoY revenue growth of 14% to 17% for the fourth quarter of 2024, implying a US$64.8 million to US$66.8 million range.

For the full year 2024, as we continue executing our profitable growth strategy, we are targeting FX neutral YoY revenue growth to 18.5% to 19.5%, implying a range of US$230 million to US$232 million based on Q3's average FX rate. We are raising our non-GAAP operating income and free cash flow margins target to low teens.

We are confident in VTEX's ability to capitalize on current market opportunities. We are empowering our customers to digitally transform their commerce operations while helping them to outperform the market.

The business outlook provided above constitutes forward-looking information within the meaning of applicable securities laws and is based on a number of assumptions and subject to a number of risks. Actual results could vary materially as a result of numerous factors, including certain risk factors, many of which are beyond VTEX's control. See the cautionary note regarding "Forward-Looking Statements" below. Fluctuations in VTEX's operating results may be particularly pronounced in the current economic environment. There can not be an assurance that VTEX will achieve these results.
