La Redoute is a French multi-channel retailer founded in 1837. It specializes in ready-to-wear apparel and home decor, and is one of the largest sellers of women's apparel and linen in France.
La Redoute was looking for ways to develop a new shopping experience for their customers and an engaging brand community. Due to the latest massive migrations to digital shopping, the brand needed to find a way to align its customer-facing experience with online and in-store purchases.
The brand wanted to create an environment that would offer their shoppers a unique experience allowing new product discoveries and inspiration sharing, all through their own channels rather than external social media. For La Redoute, being able to develop a community among its users and acquire new customers would inevitably lead to an increased conversion rate.
