Case Study #1

INDUSTRY: Engineering
CLIENT PROJECT: 60th anniversary store
PRODUCTS: Clothing, headwear & accessories

Vantage Apparel recently fulfilled an order for an engineering company seeking to celebrate their 60th anniversary by gifting each of their employees with $25. What's more, the client wanted to create a line of limited-edition wearables their staff could easily purchase at the same time to rep their place of work.

WHY WEB STORES?

Vantage Apparel worked with their distributor partner to set this client up with a temporary web store that preloaded each of their 4,000 employees' accounts with a $25 allowance to purchase limited-edition merch, such as branded hatstote bagsbackpacksT-shirts and blankets. This made it quick and efficient for the aerospace company to disperse employee gifts in one fell swoop instead of having to orchestrate a complicated in-person pickup. Staff were also given the option to use their credit card to buy more products for themselves, and free shipping was offered to all employees, as the client opted to cover shipping costs.

The result? 2,815 orders with an average order of $93. Purchased products were then drop-shipped via Vantage Apparel right to employees' homes, saving their client time, stress and money while ensuring end-users got their merch as soon as possible.
