Our take
Initially set up as a mail order company in 1991, Boden has since become a major UK fashion brand specialising in quality clothing designed to stand the test of time. It has 1.8 million active customers worldwide and has attracted high-profile buyers, including Kate Middleton, Michelle Obama, and Holly Willoughby.
Previously relying on catalogue sales, they were unable to achieve the real-time responsiveness vital in today’s retail industry. As a result, in the past few years, Boden has heavily invested in modernising its IT systems and created a new way to capture data online. Having adapted to changing consumer behaviours, now 95% of its sales occur online, enabling it to compete with the growing number of e-commerce competitors like ME + EM and Mint Velvet.
This new digital approach has not been Boden's only success in recent years. Traditionally, many UK retailers have failed to gain a foothold in the US. However, the company’s quintessential British branding has successfully set it apart, leading to Boden’s US sales already overtaking those in the UK, and the business continues to grow faster there.
