TAMPA, FL, September 16, 2011 /24-7PressRelease/ -- Jagged Peak, Inc. (OTC BB: JGPK), a leading provider of enterprise-class eCommerce solutions and supply chain services announced today the successful launch of www.footpetals.com using the EDGE eCommerce platform to power the front-end website and order management. This is the second such site for the accessories company since January.
The EDGE platform is recognized as a best-of-breed eCommerce solution, and is used by many of the world's leading consumer products companies to deploy their web stores and optimize their supply chain operations. The EDGE platform contains all of the advanced functionality required to conduct multi-channel eCommerce, and employs complex demand-management rules to effectively route orders to improve customer service and reduce supply chain costs.
"Since we already use Jagged Peak's EDGE eCommerce platform, having deployed the Dearfoams web store earlier this year, we knew integrating our recent acquisition, Foot Petals, onto the same system just made good operational and business sense," says RG Barry Internet Manager Kathryn Milette. "EDGE enables us to flexibly self manage our front-end website and integrate our back-end systems using EDI. And, given our history with the EDGE platform, we could streamline internal processes, as well as leverage existing Dearfoams.com functionality to delight Foot Petals' online customers now and well into the future."
"We're very pleased RG Barry once again selected EDGE eCommerce platform to deploy the new Foot Petals Web property," says Jagged Peak's Chief Sales and Marketing Officer Vince Fabrizzi. "It's one thing to be selected once by a prominent consumer brand like Dearfoams, but to be the platform of choice again clearly underscores this client's regard for our platform's ease of use and integration capabilities into RG Barry's system."
