Outdoor Voices, a digital-first brand, has grown exponentially since its
founding in 2014. Its approachable call to action #DoingThings unites a
nationwide community of Recreational enthusiasts who exercise for the
joy of it. As the company’s retail operations continue to expand, it is
reinvigorating its customer experience and prioritizing technology’s
role in the shopping journey, specifically how iPhone can enable
associates to securely provide the best customer experience. The
NewStore platform’s integrated cloud OMS and mobile POS gives Outdoor
Voices a single system of truth for its customers, orders and inventory.
Data insights are made available to store associates on iPhone, allowing
them to quickly and easily deploy omnichannel capabilities including
endless aisle, mobile checkout, store fulfillment, inventory management
and clienteling.

“We’ve been looking for the right partner that will make it easy to
manage a 360 degree view into our retail shops and for us, that’s
NewStore,” said Kevin Harwood, Vice President of Technology of Outdoor
Voices. “The NewStore Omnichannel Platform creates a symbiotic
relationship between our online and in-store transactions by ensuring
that our shop teams have the data they need at their fingertips and our
customers the technical apparel they’ve been looking for.”

“It’s so important for modern brands to balance technology with
authentic experiences,” said Stephan Schambach, Founder & CEO of
NewStore. “Mobile-powered store associates are what makes this possible.
Outdoor Voices is changing the face of the athletic category, not only
with its best-in-class apparel but also by committing to omnichannel.
With intuitive iPhone apps, the brand can build customer relationships
in all retail environments and expand its community far and wide.”

By running its stores on iPhone with NewStore, the Outdoor Voices brand
experience now boasts the following omnichannel benefits and then some:

    routing to get apparel to customers quickly and cost-effectively.

    options, including buy online pickup in-store (BOPIS) and ship from
