Brodie Cashmere, a UK-based luxury cashmere brand with a global presence, faced challenges with their old wholesale platform, specifically their limited network of retail buyers and the lack of ecommerce tools needed to efficiently drive their digital wholesale business. The cumbersome process of manually uploading orders and limited media tools hindered their efficiency and ultimately their growth.
Seeking a solution that would improve the effectiveness of their wholesale operations and align with their existing processes, Brodie Cashmere turned to JOOR, a renowned B2B digital wholesale platform.
