HotWax Commerce announced today that Perry Ellis International, Inc. (“Perry Ellis”), a leading designer and distributor of high-quality men's and women's apparel, accessories, fragrances, and select children's apparel, has deployed HotWax Commerce's Buy Online Pick Up In-Store (BOPIS), and Ship from Store solutions to launch its omnichannel fulfillment initiatives.
With approximately 70 stores, Perry Ellis uses Shopify and XStore as their eCommerce and POS systems. They intended to use stores as fulfillment centers to offer same-day Buy Online Pick Up In Store. Perry Ellis was trying to offer functionality that was not available within Shopify’s native local pick up solution; however, Hotwax was able to enable the advanced omnichannel experiences that customers expect..
HotWax Commerce’s BOPIS solution empowers Perry Ellis with the following features:
-
BOPIS PDP Shopify App: Shows real-time inventory availability at stores on the Product Detail Page of Shopify eCommerce platform.
-
My Store: Shoppers can choose their preferred store as the pickup location and save it, eliminating the need to select a pickup location again and again.
-
Store Mode: Shoppers can select a store and view merchandise specific to that store on the Product Listing Page of the Shopify eCommerce platform.
-
Location-Based Store Lookup: Shoppers can search for pickup locations by zip-code or city.
Perry Ellis also partnered with hyper-local delivery provider Shipt to offer same-day delivery to their customers.
HotWax Commerce’s Ship From Store solution empowers Perry Ellis with following features:
A. Shows if items can be delivered same-day on shopping cart based on parameters like customer’s zip-code, store operating hours, time taken by store to prepare the order, and store’s pickup deadlines
B. Automatically applies expected delivery date to the order based on the selected fulfillment method.
C. Confirms delivery date of order with Shipt, enabling Perry Ellis to notify customers of the actual expected ship date if it differs from what they requested.
D. Updates customers about order fulfillment status from store pick-up to delivery by getting information from Shipt’s system
E. The store fulfillment app for store associates can be embedded in XStore for accurate and fast order fulfillment.

On top of the company’s proven track record of working with Shopify retailers, the solutions can be implemented at a pace that aligns with the unique needs of our brands.” said Raymond Conesa, VP of Ecommerce Operations, Perry Ellis International.
