Kosmetica is a Spanish cosmetics store. In May 2026 they installed the Findalo module on their PrestaShop — synced 63 products in less than a second and started serving multi-language searches (ES + EN) the same day. Without rewriting the theme, without touching Smarty.
What changed
The setup, step by step
Verifiable metrics
Before
- PrestaShop's native search engine — exact match, no typo tolerance.
- Filters generated manually by category, no automatic facets.
- Search in Spanish only — EN customers shopped blind or bounced.
With Findalo
- Fuzzy search (Damerau-Levenshtein): "althea" finds "Althea" even if the shopper has a typo.
- Side filters generated automatically from brands, categories, and catalog features.
- Searches in ES and EN served from the same install, no duplicated index.
- Automatic sync: when you change a product in the BO, the index rebuilds in under 5 minutes.
