Oracle announced that leading women's specialty retailer Dress Barn Inc, selected Oracle Retail merchandising System and Oracle Retail Data Warehouse to help support more accurate inventory forecasting, merchandising and price management within its dressbarn division.
Dressbarn will use the Oracle Retail Merchandising System to provide enhanced reporting that will help improve store sales and reduce costs across the enterprise.
The implementation of Oracle Retail Merchandising System for dressbarn stores begins as Dress Barn Inc completes a record $1 billion revenue performance in 2005 and looks toward continued growth and expansion.
In the past year, the retailer grew to nearly 1,300 stores from more than 776 with the January 2005 acquisition of fashion retailer, maurices.
The dressbarn management team selected the Oracle Retail solution for its scalability, quick deployment and ability to integrate with future implementations.
Dress Barn Inc President and Chief Executive Officer, David R. Jaffe commented, "They required a partner that will provide a solid IT foundation to help them support growth for many years.
Oracle understands their retail environment and offers a footprint upon which they can create efficiencies in merchandising, planning, inventory control and the entire supply chain.
A deploying Oracle Retail solution is a critical step in their strategic growth."
Dressbarn stores will move to the Oracle Retail Merchandising System from its current legacy systems.
