NETRADA, a leading fashion eCommerce service provider, and Astound Commerce, a certified Demandware solution partner, announce a strategic partnership for high quality software development.

Through this partnership NETRADA and Astound Commerce provide fashion brands with a responsive, scalable, and cutting edge eCommerce solution backed by a rapid delivery and launch model, designed to improve time to market and reduce total cost of ownership.

NETRADA's full service eCommerce experience, coupled with Astound Commerce's vast experience with customized Demandware implementations, allow the companies to create an effective and unique delivery model. This model enables the companies to roll out new, brand-customized eCommerce solutions to the fashion and lifestyle industries in 30% less time than previous efforts.

It is the cornerstone for successful upcoming project launches, as it uses smart project management, integrated quality assurance and dynamic eCommerce technology to create market-optimized and brand-focused eCommerce solutions.

These solutions offer brands reduced risk, lower total cost of ownership and seamless integration with their existing infrastructures. Furthermore, they are open for on-demand updates and functionality extensions, based on individual requirements of the client.

The new model is based on a best-in-class fashion specific Reference Application co-developed by NETRADA and Astound Commerce, which is NETRADA's ready to use eCommerce platform with innovative fashion & lifestyle oriented features and processes.

All existing and potential new clients benefit from continuous advancement of the Reference Application with the goal to always offer the best performing and state of the art capabilities and features and allow clients to cost-effectively keep pace with the rapidly changing eCommerce environment.

"Our expertise in the fashion industry along with Astound Commerce's focus on high quality software development and rapid roll-outs allow us to deliver customized eCommerce solutions much faster than we have previously been able to achieve," explains NETRADA CIO Mirko Minnich.

Combined with NETRADA's full complement of eCommerce capabilities from warehousing to customer service, it establishes a whole new standard for brands that do business online in the apparel and fashion industry," says Astound Commerce COO Alora Chistiakoff.
