Saks Fifth Avenue partners with NuORDER

Luxury retailer Saks Fifth Avenue has deployed NuORDER technology as it looks to streamline its buying process and merchandising approach.

“Saks Fifth Avenue is known for delivering an effortless and individualised customer experience. As part of this, we strive to offer an assortment that is new, unexpected and exclusive,” says Tracy Margolies, Chief Merchant, Saks Fifth Avenue.

“To maintain our leadership in luxury retail, we have been evolving our merchandise strategy to continually deliver the best edit for our customers, when and where they want it.”

“While these efforts have been underway for some time, the current environment has given us the opportunity to accelerate our plans. Our adoption of NuORDER’s data-driven platform is an important step in our strategy, enabling us to better collaborate with our vendor partners, drive inventory efficiency and ensure merchandise effectiveness across all touchpoints.”

Saks will leverage NuORDER’s technology across the apparel, footwear and accessory verticals. It says that, through the system’s ability to present the full seasonal market buy in a visually compelling and easy-to-use presentation, the Saks buying team will be able to more efficiently identify merchandising opportunities aligned with seasonal trends and customer expectations.

In addition, vendors will have access to a more streamlined and integrated selling experience through the use of centralised, digital linesheets and catalogues, as well as the ability to collaborate in real-time.
