    At Crate & Barrel Holdings, the customer is at the center of everything we do. While our store, home delivery, and customer care teams work hard to provide the best experience within their channels, they also provide valuable insights we can apply throughout the entire customer journey. 💡 Earlier this month, members of our Customer Care team set up a temporary work station at HQ, and invited fellow colleagues from across departments to observe their customer interactions. Immersive experiences like this foster valuable cross-department learning and appreciation while driving our business forward. We’re thankful for our full-house of curious, collaborative, and customer focused associates!

    Another inspiring trip to our colleagues and partners in the US! My visit of Crate and Barrel and Boston Dynamics alongside my Board colleague Sergio Bucher had three stops, each of which were highlights. Here's what I took from our trip: ✅ CRM is an especially relevant success factor in #retail and #ecommerce. We had a great exchange with colleagues from Crate & Barrel, bonprix, OTTO, limango GmbH - A member of the otto group, Project A, Headline and the Otto Group. This is also one of our strengths in the group: a diverse set of internationally active companies that can inspire each other with best practices. Thank you to Dr. Nicolai Johannsen and Henrieke Hentschel (OTTO), Marcel de Vries and Thomas Ernst (Limango), Dr. Torben Hansen (bonprix), Florian Heinemann and Audrey Mann (Project A), Thomas Gieselmann and Nicolas von Blottnitz (Headline), Julian Grunewald (Otto Group) as well as Janet Hayes, Alicia Waters, Ryan Turf, ason Bootha and Amy Eschliman from Crate & Barrel! ✅ We also visited our partners a Boston Dynamics to discuss advances in #robotics. Their robots Stretch and Spot are in operation in our warehouses and pushing logistics forward! ✅ Last but not least was a visit of CB2 and Crate & Barrel stores. A very special shout-out to the very welcoming colleagues on-site! Their dedication to making customers happy was apparent and very inspiring. The importance of passionate people in the stores for real customer satisfaction can't be overestimated. Thank you! This is something I believe in and that was affirmed yet again: The future of retail and e-commerce is created by people and technology / robotics hand-in-hand. I'm glad that the Otto Group is strong on both sides.

    Today, Crate & Barrel and Crate & Kids launch two new collections with celebrity designer, Jake Arnold. This launch draws from the success of our initial 2023 collaboration with Jake, and expands into new product categories—a debut collection with Crate & Kids and an extension into outdoor with Crate & Barrel. We are thrilled to offer our customers a wider selection of Jake’s beautiful designs. With over 145 new, exclusive pieces, these collections celebrate Jake’s effortless style that blends together heirloom classics with a modern touch. The assortment of outdoor furniture, lighting, and tabletop merges English garden elegance with glam Hollywood Regency, while Jake Arnold for Crate & Kids lends a nod to European vintage with subtle undersea motifs, and pieces that can stand on their own to grow from nursery to big kids room. Customers can shop each collection at Crate & Barrel (https://lnkd.in/giRk4jYg) and Crate & Kids (https://lnkd.in/gyBg8rjH) online, in the app, and in select stores.

    It’s Employee Appreciation Day today, and we’d like to give a HUGE shoutout to all the people and teams across Crate & Barrel Holdings! Honestly, though, we think it’s pretty important to share our appreciation for each other every day. That’s why we have a program dedicated to providing associates with opportunities to recognize one another for Living Our Values Every Day (LOVE). During a recent panel discussion with some of our associates who have been celebrated for LOVE, we asked why it’s important to show appreciation on a regular basis. Big thanks to Jack Biehl, Lynn Blaszak, Rita Cookson, Nadia Jeffrey, Kate Munoz, Sophia Standen, and Lazarus Tsakiridis, for such an engaging conversation, sharing your valuable insights and inspiring us to continue to cultivate a thriving company culture. We're so grateful to you and ALL our associates who share a mutual appreciation for each other and bring our values to life every day!

    Being experts in entertaining means continuously learning from change makers in the industry. This week, we had the privilege of celebrating Black History Month with Chef Tiffany Williams and an inspiring conversation about food, culture, and community. As the owner of Exquisite Catering & Events, LLC, Tiffany caters international cuisine for TV and movie sets, concert tours and more. Her commitment to positive change within the Black community shines through her support of local vendors and many Chicago South Side residents. We were fortunate to hear her personal journey and point of view on representation in the culinary world, and even gain some pro tips for food and food preparation. Big thanks to Chef Tiffany for sharing her experiences, insights, and delicious bites, and to C&B Technology Product Manager Kimani Levy for leading this important conversation!
