BENRUS Opens Showroom and Ecommerce in New York
New York, NY (PRWEB) February 06, 2018 -- BENRUS, the iconic American heritage brand, has opened its new showroom and ecommerce business in New York City. This marks a new chapter for the brand, as their beginnings date back to 1921 where they first established themselves in the famous Hippodrome building. Chief executive officer - Sara Fernstrom says “With the changes we’ve seen in consumer shopping patterns and in retail in recent years, we felt it made sense to provide a more personal shopping experience to our customer’s to compliment the more traditional ways.”
Over the years, BENRUS’ progressive vision and innovative designs were notable as they soon became the watch of choice for the U.S. military and the third largest watch company in the country. Since then, multiple generations of luminaries, such as John F. Kennedy, Charles Lindbergh, Babe Ruth and Walter Johnson have worn the iconic BENRUS timepieces throughout history.
The BENRUS showroom is located in the heart of New York’s Fashion District. Fashion buyers will be given exclusive access to the latest collections and upcoming pieces. Iconic BENRUS watches, vintage advertisements, historical relics and the brand’s latest collection will be on display, giving new-comers an exciting brand experience. Customers can purchase past and current collections online on iPads or make direct purchases from the showroom. Online orders will then be shipped to customers’ homes or get picked up in the showroom.
BENRUS has partnered with Craftwork Design Co. http://www.craftworkdesignco.com, to build out the new BENRUS ecommerce experience.
