Morrisons to work with Kooomo to launch its flagship clothing Nutmeg brand online

PRESS RELEASE: 

Kooomo, the omnichannel cloud commerce platform announces today it is working with supermarket chain Morrisons to launch its clothing brand Nutmeg online. The agreement will see Kooomo undertake management of Nutmeg’s entire digital operations – providing both the platform and the consulting services to take care of operations: from e-store management and merchandising through to SEO and social media marketing.

The deal will enable customers to purchase Nutmeg clothing online, click and collect in-store and receive rewards online through the Morrisons loyalty programme. Launching in September, the site will feel like Nutmeg and Kooomo will provide the infrastructure so that customers can view and buy from the complete range.

Christine Bryce, Category Director for Nutmeg at Morrisons said: “We have served customers better by introducing Nutmeg womenswear into nearly 100 stores and extending our baby range to every Morrisons store. This agreement with Kooomo will enable us to offer our affordable, quality clothing - with real attention to detail - to more people.”

The Kooomo platform was selected by Morrisons for its proven ability to rapidly scale, as well as the company’s experience of working with fashion retailers. The ecommerce site will be available on all devices and will include rewards for Morrisons More card holders.

Ciaran Bollard, CEO at Kooomo said: "Taking a fashion brand online is an important step for any retailer, given that Fashion is dominating Click and Collect revenues of £10bn and growing at over 50% in the UK market. To be chosen by Nutmeg – Morrisons, top 20 UK fashion retailer to lead all elements of the strategy online, mobile and click and collect is particularly exciting given the growth of both brands. Despite the compelling business case, still only half of the top UK retailers have implemented Click and Collect. We look forward to driving market adoption and delivering increased sales through a seamless solution for customers to buy the popular Nutmeg clothing range anywhere, through any device and connecting all 491 stores.”

About Nutmeg:

Morrisons launched Nutmeg, its first ever own brand clothing range, in March 2013. Since then the business has grown and Nutmeg childrenswear now has a presence in all Morrisons stores nationwide.

Nutmeg's Women’s Collection launched February 2017 is now in selected Morrisons supermarkets. A list of stores that carry the range is available here. The Women's range has been inspired and led by customers who said they wanted to see a collection with the same quality and attention to detail as the children’s ranges – clothes that are fashionable, easy to wear and ready for whatever the day may bring.
