The Aldo Group, a world-leading creator and operator of desirable footwear and accessory brands, has launched a new responsive website and e-commerce platform that raises the bar for retail online, in-store and mobile channels. The move marks the latest phase of digital transformation in the company and will push strong momentum in its mobile transactions.

The new website will drive the Montreal-based company's ecommerce goals and boost cross-category sales to grow Aldo’s popularity in footwear and accessories.

"We are committed to designing a universal digital experience: accessible, responsive, social, human-centered, and most of all, easy to evolve and scale. We involved our consumers at each step of the creative process, focussing on flows and details to go beyond convenience and build meaningful services for style seekers," said Grégoire Baret, GM of Experience Design. Baret also led the foray of Aldo’s new connected test stores.

The revamped global storefront goes live in several global markets including the US, Canada and Europe. Visitors to the site get an experience that is lightning-fast, giving shoppers the speed they expect today in e-commerce experiences. The site presents a new visual design language and stunning fashion photography and is functional across devices. It is connected to the "new and now", with styling tips from social media influencers.

The move comes as Aldo transitions leadership, with company founder Aldo Bensadoun naming son David Bensadoun the new CEO earlier this month. It's also part of Aldo’s laser-focus on showing shoppers that it's a digitally-centric brand.

Jennifer Maks, VP Omnichannel, said: “Our new digital experiences are aimed at inspiring people to explore more from Aldo and make it a primary destination for shoes, bags and accessories. Our new ecommerce website acts as the core engine for our omnichannel strategy, as a natural complement to our stores.”

“In creating Aldo’s new site, we focused on elevating the brand to ensure shoppers get a rich, premium experience. At the same time, the new digital presence is simple and fast --letting them find and purchase exactly what they're looking for in a matter of seconds. We're proud to be part of Aldo’s evolution to a seamless experience across stores, its website, mobile, customer service and the employee experience,” said Rachel Bogan, a partner at digital product agency Work & Co.
