Camaïeu, leading French women’s ready-to-wear brand, has selected Centric Software’s Product Lifecycle Management (PLM) solution.
Founded in 1984, Camaïeu is a French women’s ready-to-wear brand that produces exclusive collections entirely designed by its studio in Roubaix. The company, whose goal is to offer an excellent price to quality and trend value, offers full range of fun, playful, easy-to-wear styles for all occasions. Today, Camaïeu is present in more than 22 countries with over 900 stores in Europe, Africa and the Middle East serving 37 million customers worldwide.
Camaïeu wanted to equip themselves with a PLM solution to streamline operational processes and ensure a collaborative workflow across the entire company.
“We wanted a PLM solution that would improve communication between departments and align our internal processes,” explains Mathilde Ichac, Supply Manager at Camaïeu. “Our goal is to reduce the time spent organizing information in order to gain visibility on deadlines and activities throughout the organization.”
“Standardization and collaboration are a major issue in our field as we have teams in France, Morocco, Vietnam, Bangladesh and China. It is therefore essential to set up a common platform that everyone can use to work together,” she continues.
Camaïeu met several PLM vendors before deciding on Centric Software’s flagship Centric 8 PLM solution.
“We met different PLM vendors but it was Centric that proved to be outstanding,” says Ichac. “In addition to being the PLM market leader in the fashion and apparel world, Centric offers an extremely ergonomic and intuitive PLM solution that is flexible and fast to implement, making it easy for users to adopt.”
“With the help of the Centric team, we will benefit from industry best practices for our ready-to-wear, accessories and lingerie lines,” Ichac continues. “We look forward to having a single, reliable view of each product, digitizing our manual processes and driving our business even more effectively. Centric is listening to its customers and has a scalable solution that will adapt to the development of our product offering.”
“We are very pleased that Camaïeu has chosen to implement Centric Software’s PLM solution,” says Chris Groves, President and CEO of Centric Software. “We are proud to embark on this new project with the French leader in women’s ready-to-wear and we look forward to supporting the brand’s digital transformation now and in the future.”
