Espace Emeraude adapts to the health crisis
Espace Emeraude is a network of 61 affiliated stores (independent managers) and 18 integrated stores (salaried managers). The brand celebrated in 2020 its 40 years of expertise. Unfortunately, this year is synonymous with health and economic crisis. In order to continue the activity of its points of sale during confinement, Espace Emeraude has decided to keep its stores open while following very strict health rules.
The brand has also implemented a “ click and collect ” system. This service made it possible to double connections to the brand’s website during the lockdown. Noting this significant customer demand, the management of the company decided to invest in improving the performance of its merchant site.
