Assignment
Corn. van Dijk Ltd., a family company responsible for the wholesale business and export of the brand Vandyck’s, asked us to develop a retail concept and strategy for the new to develop Vandyck flagship stores. In this retail marketing strategy, all nine retail P’s had to be described. Including the how, what and why. The basic principle was that the new concept and the strategy needed to reflect the current positioning of the brand and the products. Additional focus was on branding, the product range, experience and retail marketing(communication).
Result
We have presented three international scenarios of a retail concept and developed the matching strategy. We described these scenarios in a practical and concrete plan including 3D visualizations of the potential flagship store. Start of the project was a benchmark, trend and consumer research, brainstorming sessions and presentations as well, together with a large team of Corn. van Dijk. In 2008, shortly after the project finished the first flagship store opened in Hilversum.
