“As a company committed to digitally transforming the merchandising process, we searched extensively for a seasoned merchandising leader,” said Tom Erskine, CEO of One Door. “Jen brings a unique strategic and operational perspective to our decision making, and I am excited to work with her and the rest of the board to shape the next chapter in the One Door growth story.”
“Merchandise presentation in stores is critical to attracting and retaining customers in today’s retail environment, but I know from experience that delivering consistency across a broad store footprint is a challenge for retailers,” said Loesch. “One Door is uniquely positioned to address this challenge and help close the gap between merchandising intent and in-store execution.
