Leading apparel retailer launches new website
with improved customer experience and ability to support long-term
growth
BigCommerce (Nasdaq: BIGC), a leading Open SaaS ecommerce
platform for fast-growing and established B2C and B2B brands, today
announced Coldwater Creek, a leading specialty retailer of women’s
apparel, has launched a new ecommerce site with a modernized tech
stack on the BigCommerce platform.
Coldwater Creek, a 40-year-old direct-to-consumer brand, faced
an opportunity to upgrade its technology and replace its ecommerce
platform to provide the company an ability to grow in a
cost-effective and timely way. Coldwater Creek turned to digital
commerce agency CQL, an elite BigCommerce partner, to help identify
an ecommerce platform that would provide features and benefits to
improve financial performance and support growth. The brand
ultimately chose BigCommerce for its technological capabilities,
strategic implementation plan and impressive total cost of
ownership.
“Coldwater Creek’s growth plan required a significant upgrade to
our ecommerce capabilities,” said Dave Walde, CEO of Coldwater
Creek. “Replatforming to BigCommerce gives us a modernized
infrastructure to drive brand expansion, deliver an engaging
customer experience and provide us with tools to scale operations
and grow revenue.”
Coldwater Creek’s new storefront delivers an elevated brand look
with a heightened customer experience featuring nature-inspired
palettes, intuitive navigation filled with captivating imagery and
immersive storytelling, and visual badges and promotions to enrich
the shopping experience. With an ecommerce infrastructure built on
the open BigCommerce platform, Coldwater Creek is outfitted for
long-term growth with the flexibility to add new functionality
quickly and easily.
"The strategic digital transformation to BigCommerce and a new
tech ecosystem underscores Coldwater Creek's commitment to
innovation, differentiation, and dedication to serving their
customers," states Scott Robertson, managing director at CQL. "With
a best-of-breed omni-channel experience and robust tools for their
ecommerce team, Coldwater Creek is positioned for substantial
growth ahead."
“Coldwater Creek is the latest fashion and apparel brand to
capitalize on BigCommerce's open, trusted platform and strong
partner ecosystem to expand the functionality and power of its
online storefront,” said Steven Chung, president of BigCommerce.
“We’re thrilled to add this inspiring multi-generational brand to
the BigCommerce platform and look forward to supporting their
long-term growth.”
Coldwater Creek joins a growing group of fashion and apparel
merchants on the BigCommerce platform, including La Perla, Badgley
