Alliance Data renews deal with apparel retailer Gordmans

Based in Omaha, Neb., Gordmans stores carry a wide selection of name-brand apparel, accessories, footwear, gifts, fragrances, and jewelry for all ages, as well as home fashions, at savings of up to 60 percent off department and specialty store regular prices every day in fun, easy-to-shop stores. Gordmans posted annual revenues of $551.5 million in 2011.

"Gordmans was founded as a family-owned business—and with those roots come an obsession with providing family-oriented service and a rewarding guest experience. Our credit program, in partnership with Alliance Data, has always been fully aligned with this business philosophy," said Jeff Gordman, president and chief executive officer of Gordmans, Inc.

"We're excited to renew our relationship with Alliance Data to continue increasing guest affinity for our brand through the card, and to further our mission of delighting our guests with big savings, big selection and fun, friendly associates."

Additionally, Gordmans and Alliance Data have begun a full rollout of Alliance Data's in-store, tablet-based mobile technology to drive account acquisition efforts following a successful pilot earlier in 2012.

"We look forward to renewing our nearly decade-long partnership with Gordmans to bring even greater value to its cardholders," said Melisa Miller, president of Alliance Data Retail Services. "We're prepared to continue growing the Gordmans credit card program—helping to drive sales, company growth and customer loyalty through the tailored promotions and robust multichannel marketing campaigns we deliver with our credit programs."
