This client interview showcases how Price & Buckland partnered with Remarkable Commerce to overhaul their eCommerce stack - resulting in a nimble, feature-rich, school‑centric uniform-shopping platform with advanced personalisation, mobile performance, and back-end integration.
Price & Buckland’s eCommerce journey has evolved significantly from a minor channel into a core driver of business growth. Initially focused on traditional retail with sales agents and B2B sales, online sales made up less than 20% of their turnover. As digital demand grew, they introduced basic school-specific websites, though limited by technical constraints. The shift in consumer behaviour, particularly after COVID, prompted a major replatforming with Remarkable Commerce. Following this transformation, eCommerce has continued to expand to account for an estimated 80% of total turnover. With ongoing improvements in user experience, mobile optimisation, and marketing integrations, their digital sales continue to grow year-on-year.
