A boutique retailer that currently designs and retails leather goods, fashion accessories, footwear, jewelery, timepieces, fragrance, makeup, and skin care products required the support of RGIS. The label remains largely for women’s offerings, although the company also operates a division for men and the baby label for children’s wear. Products are sold throughout its portfolio of retail stores worldwide, as well as through its online store.
THE CHALLENGE
The boutique retailer needed stores set up within airport locations during off-peak travel hours to avoid financial losses. It was too expensive to staff new location setups, and newly hired staff lacked the training to set up the stores.
The boutique retailer required RGIS to provide the following:
- Experienced merchandisers
- Overnight shifts to complete the store set-ups
- Nationwide coverage to set up stores at all airports
- Work to tight deadlines to ensure all stores opened on schedule
