Infor has announced that American Exchange Group (AXNY), a multi-division industry leader in accessories design, manufacturing and wholesale, has selected Infor CloudSuite Fashion, an ERP solution specifically designed for apparel, footwear, textile and fashion accessories companies, to standardize all divisions across the organization and support future growth.
Recently, AXNY acquired two footwear brands, Aerosoles and White Mountain Footwear Group. With these additions, it became a priority to consolidate to a single ERP solution.
“With our recent acquisitions of Aerosoles, White Mountain and Cliffs, adding to our AXNY portfolio, we were faced with having to maintain multiple ERP systems to support multiple brands,” said Alen Mamrout, CEO, AXNY.
“We knew we needed one platform that made sense for all divisions and brands with the dynamic capacity to support future growth and additional potential acquisitions. This provides better communication and better allocation of our resources for productive results. We are looking forward to the consolidation of systems as well as optimizing the visibility of our information from one source.”
By consolidating to one ERP solution, American Exchange Group will have better integration between systems, standardization across all business units and more modern capabilities. This new end-to-end solution includes Infor CloudSuite Fashion, Fashion PLM (product lifecycle management), Factory Track and Infor Birst analytics & reporting.
The multi-tenant cloud solution is powered by Amazon Web Services (AWS) and deployed by Infor partner Fortude, a leading global enterprise and digital services company with a strong focus in the fashion industry.
“AXNY has made it a priority to have the best resources, products and teams to ensure the continued success and growth of our company,” said Todd Emerson, CTO, AXNY. “We selected a partner that aligned with our Digital Transformation strategy and would support our continued success and growth. Infor’s multi-tenant CloudSuite Fashion ERP solution is powered by AWS – making it a perfect match for our long-term strategy.”
Dan Dufault, SVP and General Manager, Infor Fashion and Retail Solutions, said: “AXNY is the latest example of a leading apparel brand company that has joined the Infor CloudSuite Fashion roster of customers in their quest for a Digital Transformation. AXNY is strategically positioned to consolidate and streamline its current processes while leveraging our technology to advance its leadership position of driving growth in the market. We look forward to a long and mutually successful relationship with the AXNY team.”
