bonÀrea is a Spanish business group with revenue of €2.68 billion and over 6,400 employees (more than 200 of whom are IT professionals). What began as a small poultry cooperative has grown into a vertically integrated conglomerate spanning food, energy, telecommunications, banking, and insurance — with a network of 612 bonÀrea supermarkets across Spain and more than 4,500 cooperative members.
With a cumulative investment of €600 million over the past five years — where innovation and technology are a major component — including over 20,000 IoT devices across its production facilities, an innovation center in Lleida, and more, bonÀrea continues to invest in the ongoing modernization of its systems.
With the arrival of AI-assisted coding tools, bonÀrea's development teams wanted to incorporate them into their daily work. But for an organization of bonÀrea's scale and complexity — with multiple teams working on interconnected systems — adopting AI without a common framework posed a risk: each developer using different tools, without governance, and without the ability to ensure that AI followed the company's standards.
bonÀrea was looking for a platform that would allow them to adopt AI in a structured way — with the ability to define how it was used by each team while maintaining control over code quality and security.
Sergi Trujillo Agramunt, Head of Software Infrastructure, bonÀreaWe were looking for an AI tool that would let us define our own standards and share them across all teams. With Zencoder's custom agents, we can work with the confidence that AI follows our practices, regardless of who is using it.
The key differentiator for bonÀrea was Zencoder's custom agents. Each team can create AI agents configured with their own coding standards, architectural patterns, and business rules — in natural language, in each developer's native language — with the ability to share them across the entire organization. This ensures that AI is not a generic tool, but an assistant that works according to each department's specific practices. The chat and agent interactions also work fully in multiple languages, removing any language barrier for development teams.
At bonÀrea, with all processes fully integrated, security is non-negotiable. Zencoder holds the triple certification of SOC 2 Type II, ISO 27001, and ISO 42001, with zero code storage on external servers and the option for on-premise deployment.
