SnapLogic Supports Browns Shoes Through COVID-19 Pandemic

Canadian retailer uses the SnapLogic platform to quickly adapt business processes and IT systems to meet surging online demand and maintain an exceptional customer experience

When COVID-19 hit, Browns Shoes was forced to close its 68 stores and reduce a significant amount of its workforce in its distribution center. Having previously selected SnapLogic to support a new Business Intelligence initiative, the shoe retailer quickly shifted its IT focus to support online sales. 

Browns Shoes’ customers quickly made the jump online, and after a quiet first week in lockdown, the retailer saw one of its biggest spikes resulting in a 300% increase in sales. This sudden change brought its own challenges, so the retailer used SnapLogic to quickly build out a range of new applications and processes within its distribution center to help its teams manage the surge in online demand.
