Operating across a multichannel distribution of 160 North American full price and outlet stores, top-tier major and specialty wholesale partners, robust eCommerce platforms, and multiple international points of distribution, the brand has succeeded in becoming a frontrunner in design and product innovation and a global leader in the premium denim sector.
Leveraging the speed-to-value benefits of the Epicor Retail software as a service (SaaS) engagement model, True Religion deployed the Epicor Retail Store (point of sale), Mobile Store, Merchandising, CRM, and Enterprise Selling in 2013 -- benefitting from a 40 percent cycle time reduction in industry-standard retail technology implementations.
Now, to support improved organizational responsiveness and meet the demands of today's empowered customer, True Religion will deploy Epicor's newest cloud-enabled order management and business intelligence solutions -- making True Religion the first customer to leverage the full end-to-end suite of Epicor Retail solutions in the cloud.
