This month we take a closer look at how retailers and brands are kicking off 2022 with a focus on what matters most – the customer and their experience across channels. 

Leveraging insights from peak and kicking off a fresh year, we’ve seen clients hit the ground running to implement some key features and channels that cater to what they want and need. This comes in all shapes and sizes from sustainability initiatives through to new channels.

Fenwick x Thrift

Department store Fenwick have partnered with Thrift+ in the UK to allow customers to rethink, recycle and relove pieces by donating their pre-loved items. By adding a free thrift+ bag to any online order or picking up in-store, customers can have their items sold and receive credits to spend on second-hand fashion as well as receiving 10% off at Fenwick after donation. This is a great initiative which encourages a circular economy and answers to customer demand for brands to become more conscious of their impact on the environment.
