Customers today are more skeptical than ever. They want to support brands that align with their values—but they also want proof. In the age of heightened ESG (Environmental, Social, Governance) awareness, simply talking about sustainability or ethical practices isn’t enough. To build lasting trust and elevate customer experience, brands must communicate ESG initiatives with clarity, transparency, and authenticity.
Customers today aren’t just buying products—they’re buying into values. A recent study revealed that 75% of consumers worldwide expect brands to contribute to their well-being and quality of life. forbes.com
This means ESG (Environmental, Social, and Governance) isn’t just a corporate checklist—it’s a powerful driver of customer experience (CX). At BARE International, we see firsthand how ESG-forward brands build deeper trust and loyalty.
Revenue rarely disappears in a single moment. It slips away slowly, hidden inside everyday interactions that leaders never see. Long before sales drop or complaints rise, the customer experience has already started sending warnings. The challenge is that most companies are not looking in the right places to catch those signals.

Understanding the customer experience often requires more than data points and written observations. The most meaningful insights live in real moments: how a visitor is greeted, the energy of the space, the subtle cues that influence whether someone engages, explores, or walks away. Traditional reporting can capture the facts, but video captures the truth.

For decades, the traditional “happy hour” meant one thing: gathering with friends or coworkers at a familiar bar, surrounded by clinking glasses and background noise. But the way people connect over drinks is changing. Increasingly, the modern social scene is unfolding somewhere quieter, more intentional, and far more experiential: at wineries, breweries, cideries, and distilleries.
These spaces have evolved from niche destinations into cultural hubs, places where people go not just to have a drink, but to have an experience. Across the globe, the craft beverage industry is flourishing, fueled by a shared desire for authenticity, storytelling, and community.

In hospitality, small details create big impressions. A smile at check-in, a spotless room, or a personalized recommendation can transform a stay from “good” to “unforgettable.” But none of these outcomes are accidental – they result from careful planning, staff training, and constant monitoring of performance.
In 2025, the smarter question in CX is not whether AI will play a role, it is how humans and AI should interlock to drive business outcomes. The organizations succeeding today treat them not as opponents, but as partners.
At BARE International, we know that performance is not about assumptions – it’s about clarity. Companies cannot rely on intuition alone to coach their teams or to recognize excellence. Data has become the compass that guides leaders, helping them identify not only where gaps exist, but also where opportunities for growth are hidden.
