Buying & Merchandising

The range you commit to in March is judged in September — Coord gives you the market's answer while the buy is still open

Ranging against a market you cannot see is guessing with extra steps

Competitor ranges change every week, and the parts that matter — what came in, what sold through, what quietly disappeared — are the parts nobody publishes. Coord watches them continuously, so a buy is argued from the market rather than from last year's sheet.

What the week looks like either side of it

  • Today

    Competitor ranges checked by hand, a few brands at a time, whenever somebody has an afternoon

    With Coord

    Every brand in your set read every day, without anyone opening a tab

  • Today

    A gap in the range turns up when a customer asks for something you do not stock

    With Coord

    Categories your competitive set is serving and you are not, listed while the buy is still open

  • Today

    Newness judged by whatever looks busy on a competitor's homepage

    With Coord

    What actually landed this week, by category, with the date it appeared

  • Today

    Last season's numbers used as the plan, because they are the only numbers to hand

    With Coord

    This season's market used as the plan, measured early enough to act on

The gap you can still act on

Range coverage, measured against the brands you compete with.

A gap is not an absence — it is a category your competitive set is serving and you are not, at a depth that says they mean it. Coord holds every watched range as structured attributes, so the comparison is a query rather than an afternoon of tabs.

A colour rising while there is still time to buy it

Movement across a whole market, measured weekly.

Butter yellow does not arrive announced. It appears as a few more options in a few more ranges, week on week, until it is everywhere and too late. Because the shade is measured off the garment rather than read off the title, Coord can count it while it is still early.

The capabilities this team actually reaches for.

A solutions page is a lens, not a different product. These are the same capabilities every Coord customer gets, in the order this team tends to need them — and each one is covered in full on its own page.
