November 07 2016 - 4:07PM
CommerceHub (Nasdaq:CHUBA) (Nasdaq:CHUBK), a leading distributed
commerce network for retailers and brands, today announced that
DICK’S Sporting Goods, Inc. (NYSE:DKS) has deployed
CommerceHub’s unified e-commerce platform to drive omni-channel
growth on DSG.com and key subsidiaries, including Golf Galaxy and
Field & Stream. The partnership is allowing DICK’S to offer a
broader assortment of sporting goods online – from fishing gear to
running shoes, golf clubs, and baseball gloves, for professional
and recreational athletes alike – and deliver products to customers
quickly and efficiently.
“CommerceHub provides us with the technical capabilities to
integrate quickly with our key vendor partners and enables
consistent communication on the most important operational
metrics,” said Eileen Meade, vice president of omni-channel
customer experience at DICK’S. “Their platform gives us the venue
to offer our customers an expanded assortment with a seamless
customer experience. With CommerceHub, we have increasing
insight to the complete omni-channel solution.”
Shoppers today have strong personal preferences when it comes to
sporting goods, whether it’s a favorite brand of footwear, their
hometown team, or custom-made lacrosse equipment. To capture growth
and build loyalty, retailers need to broaden their assortments by
connecting with a wider selection of brands that appeal to
customers and fit the needs of their chosen sports. DICK’s selected
CommerceHub based on the extensive roster of brands that are
already part of its network and the ease with which the company’s
robust technology allows them to add new suppliers and deliver
orders to customers seamlessly.
“Athletes and outdoor enthusiasts look to DICK’S for all of
their sporting goods needs,” said Frank Poore, President and CEO of
CommerceHub. “Through CommerceHub’s platform, we’re providing an
‘endless aisle’ experience to DICK’S customers online, so they
aren’t limited by the space available on store shelves or in
warehouses – and DICK’S can offer a much broader array of items
they’re seeking for the activities they love.”
Since its public listing, CommerceHub has announced major
additions to its network of retailers and brands, including DICK’S
and BJ’s Wholesale Club, as well as an expansion onto Walmart
Marketplace. This momentum reflects CommerceHub’s focus on driving
growth for its partners, as they take their e-commerce operations
to the next level through CommerceHub’s supply, demand, and
delivery solutions.
