Aptos, a recognized market leader in retail technology solutions, announced today that Cole Haan will deploy the Aptos ONE platform. With its microservices-based design, Aptos ONE supports one set of universal capabilities, available at any touch point. Due to its highly composable architecture, Aptos ONE will provide Cole Haan with unmatched flexibility to deliver new innovations and empower the modern store experience.
With a 90-year heritage, Cole Haan is sold in more than 90 direct retail stores within the United States and Canada; in over 300 international store locations; on its global digital flagship, colehaan.com; and within department store and specialty retail partners. Cole Haan infuses its products with time-honored craftsmanship and modern innovation, making footwear and lifestyle accessories that customers wear from work to workout to weekend.
“As part of that, we strive to deliver extraordinary retail experiences,” said Ron Edwards, Chief Operating Officer of Cole Haan. “In recent years, what constitutes a great retail experience has changed dramatically. Our investment in Aptos ONE reflects our commitment to keeping pace with consumers’ evolving expectations. Aptos ONE gives Cole Haan enterprise-grade point of sale capabilities that are delivered mobile first and cloud native, with highly resilient offline capabilities that give you the confidence of omnichannel transacting anytime and anywhere.”
With its open architecture, Aptos ONE can accommodate new tools and services that allow retailers to quickly adapt to the shifting demands of the customer, the market and the business. To get started on its Aptos ONE journey, Cole Haan will deploy Aptos ONE POS, a solution offered on the Aptos ONE platform.
“Cole Haan’s commitment to high-quality craftsmanship, customer obsession and technological modernization is apparent in everything it does,” said Aptos CEO Pete Sinisgalli. “With Aptos ONE, Cole Haan will extend its investment in unified commerce to more tightly integrate the customer experience and the enterprise. We’re grateful for our long-standing partnership with this forward-looking retailer.”
