NEW YORK, May 31, 2011 -
Barneys New York, the luxury specialty retailer, announced today that its
e-commerce website, Barneys.com (www.Barneys.com), has introduced
international shipping to 90 countries including Canada, South Korea, the
United Kingdom, Australia, and China.
International customers of Barneys will enjoy the same full-service
online shopping experience currently available to domestic customers, but
will be able to make payments in their preferred currency with cost-effective
international shipping and handling services. By going global, Barneys is
able to offer its carefully edited assortment of products to those outside of
the existing US e-commerce market.
"Barneys has always been a destination for International tourists and it
is a natural step to offer our web services to the rest of the world. Barneys
has incredible global brand recognition, but we could only service here in
the US. International shipping has fundamentally changed that reach," says
Daniella Vitale, Chief Merchant and Executive Vice-President of Barneys New
York.
Barneys has partnered with FiftyOne Global Ecommerce, the recognized
market leader in international e-commerce, to provide exceptional service and
convenience for its customers around the world. FiftyOne allows US retailers
to transact with customers in over 90 countries worldwide, making it the most
comprehensive global e-commerce offering available in the marketplace today.
Launched in 2005, Barneys.com translates the upscale environment and
curated assortment of the flagship stores into the digital realm. Barneys.com
provides a feature-rich, sophisticated environment and an engaging online
shopping experience to further strengthen the brand's relationship with its
clients around the world. Barneys also operates a fully transactional mobile
version of its site along with The Window, a luxury content site that offers
an insider view to designers, fashion, events, and the Barneys team.
