In 1818, Brooks Brothers became the first ready-to-wear fashion emporium in America with the opening of its initial store. Since that time, it has become an institution shaping the style of American dress through fashion innovation, fine quality, personal service and exceptional value. Today, Brooks Brothers has more than 330 stores around the world.

Brooks Brothers selected Demandware because it enables the company to execute its digital commerce strategies with speed and agility. In addition, Demandware’s cloud model provides operational efficiencies and better economics for Brooks Brothers’ complex environment that includes many different and evolving product categories, a proliferation of customer data and intelligence, and an ever-increasing amount of content to help consumers research and purchase products. With Demandware, Brooks Brothers is able to effectively manage multiple sites across geographies and channels.

“Over the past two centuries, many things have changed, but Brooks Brothers’ commitment to innovation and a superior brand experience has not wavered,” said Ken Seiff, EVP, direct and omni-channel at Brooks Brothers. “We want to serve our customers in the most exceptional ways regardless of which channel they choose to engage with us. This means knowing their preferences and providing a personalized shopping experience at all times.”

“It’s Brooks Brothers’ dedication to quality and service that keeps customers coming back to this iconic brand generation after generation,” said Tom Ebling, CEO, Demandware. “Today, Brooks Brothers continues to transform its business to meet the evolving needs of discerning consumers across channels and geographies. With Demandware Commerce, they have an enterprise-class platform that allows them to move quickly to continually provide the best brand experiences to its loyal customer base.”

Brooks Brothers collaborated with Demandware LINK Solution Partner, Fluid, Inc. for site development, design and system integration. Brooks Brothers also leveraged several pre-built integrations to third-party technologies available through the Demandware LINK Marketplace, including Experian QAS, Accertify, Bazaarvoice, ExactTarget, MyBuys and PayPal.
