All of this will allow Roots to continue to evolve its online business while remaining a leader in the marketplace.”

“As one of the first brands to use our End2End eCommerce solution, Roots migrated to the Demandware platform in order to expand its capabilities and empower its online channel, poising itself for accelerated growth,” said Mike Willoughby, President of PFSweb’s services division. “From the beginning, we sought to deliver maximum capability and flexibility to Roots across all functions of their online initiative. Roots’s measurable success using our End2End solution proves our advanced technology, tightly coupled with world-class operations, results in both revenue growth as well as the delivery of the best experience for our clients’ customers. We continue to craft similar solutions for other leading online brands.”
