Adore Me Chooses Vanguard Software for Sales Forecasting, Demand Planning
CARY, N.C. (PRWEB) July 10, 2018 -- E-commerce lingerie brand Adore Me joined a growing list of high-end consumer brands that have selected Vanguard Software to help forecast sales, optimize operations, and plan growth.
Manhattan-based Adore Me operates as both designer and retailer, selling proprietary lingerie, sleepwear, swimwear, and other products online through its notably successful subscription-based program. In recent years, the company’s expansion of product lines and successful pushes into new buyer demographics have fueled exponential sales and market-share growth.
With growth comes complexity, especially in consumer markets such as electronics and fashion. The steady stream of new products makes historical data harder to read. As a fast-fashion DTC brand, demand cycles are short – sometimes just months or weeks – which makes launch scheduling and capacity planning exceptionally difficult.
Adore Me’s Operations Director Laura Hoffmann says, “Our products are the key to our success. Our customers trust us to deliver a fashionable, affordable showroom every single month. It’s critical to catch trends early and ensure favorites are always in stock. Vanguard’s advanced forecasting capabilities help us ensure we always have the right product at the right time.”
Initially, Adore Me will use Vanguard primarily to forecast sales, plan demand, and make purchase decisions for both finished goods and raw materials. Company planners see substantial opportunity to expand their use of Vanguard in the future.
