Results speak for themselves, Zee & Co has achieved a 275% increase in turnover a five-year period (2013-2018) and was named in the top 50 internet growth companies by Internet Retailing. In addition, 72,8% of their total revenues are now coming from mobile devices. Also, we have to mention the growth of 141% in unique purchases.
They were among the first adopters of mobile and responsive website development among similar industry retailers. Over the past several years, their mobile revenues surpassed those from their 4 physical stores combined, and they are now offering a truly seamless omnichannel experience for their customers.
Zee & Co and Inchoo – Our Story
Zee & Co initially approached us in late 2012 looking for an eCommerce solution partner to implement a mobile theme on their existing online store. Together we have redesigned a fully responsive website and worked on continuous UX optimization, which has resulted in substantial improvements.
Over the years we have established a strong relationship with our client’s team, led by Joann Johnstone, Zee & Co’s Operations Manager. We’re tackling all the challenges of running a highly dynamic eCommerce business as theirs (fashion is a fast-moving industry) together.
In Joann’s words:
We view Inchoo as an extension of our own eCommerce Team and a true business partner. This relationship has allowed both companies to thrive in sometimes difficult trading periods.
We’re happy to see our ongoing work on optimizing eCommerce experiences for our clients gets recognized in such a huge event. Congrats to Zee & Co, and a massive thank-you to our hard-working Inchooers, also many congratulations to all other eCommerce Awards 2019 Winners.
