Business context


Crave Retail operates at the intersection of retail technology and in-store customer experience, helping fashion and apparel brands modernize their fitting rooms. As retailers look to increase conversion, enhance associate workflows, and better understand shopper behavior, the fitting room has become a critical revenue-driving touchpoint. Crave Retail recognized the opportunity to transform this space with real-time service, personalization, and data insights, but expanding their iOS-only solution to Android was essential for entering new global markets and meeting the needs of major international retailers.
