ESW’s configurable solution optimizes each element in the shopping journey, from local payments and checkout to delivery and returns, ensuring that brands protect and enhance their brand experience at every customer touchpoint. The company’s powerful combination of technology and human ingenuity will ensure that the Movado and MVMT brands’ e-commerce customers in every geography feel as if they are receiving the same level of service and convenience they would enjoy if shopping at their local store.
