At the heart of Luxottica's omnichannel strategy is the commitment to offer consumers a single journey across channels. Its portfolio of iconic brands includes such brands as Ray-Ban, Oakley, Persol and Vogue Eyewear, that not only offer a speedy and safe online shopping experience that rivals their offline counterparts, but also create a virtual window into the brand.
Luxottica has continuously invested in e-commerce sites to offer clients an increasingly more extensive catalogue, cutting-edge functions and a top-level purchase experience.
Engaging consumers with the brand story, an endless aisle of styles, shapes, colors and materials and hi-tech features, Luxottica's e-commerce platforms set a new eyewear industry standard.
Ray-Ban.com in particular is one of the most advanced expressions of the Group’s omnichannel strategy. With a presence in 27 countries, the site has become a favorite destination for millions of consumers every year, especially millennials in search of a more personalized experience. Some features include:
In addition to Ray-Ban.com, Oakley.com and SunglassHut.com are two important channels that add a new dimension to the Group’s distribution.
Oakley.com presents the most complete assortment of Oakley products and is available in numerous markets including the United States, Canada, Australia, Japan and 16 European countries. The centerpiece of the site is Oakley Custom, a technology that allows shoppers to customize their favorite Jawbreaker or Frogskins models in a few easy steps, starting with frame color, followed by lenses and high-definition engraving on the lenses. Even the case can be customized.
The go-to global destination for the latest premium eyewear trends and products, the new SunglassHut.com has been redesigned to offer an even smoother navigational experience on desktops and mobile devices. Bold images, new functionality and storytelling make consumers feel as if they’re fully engaged in a virtual buying experience similar to the in-store journey. Launched in 2008, the site is currently available in the United Kingdom, Brazil, New Zealand, the United States, Canada and Australia.
Luxottica’s e-commerce sites are constantly evolving and improving to meet the needs and desires of consumers everywhere. Two new e-commerce sites are soon to board the Company's omnichannel journey: Persol, a centenary brand rooted in art and design, will translate seamlessly into e-commerce, and Vogue Eyewear, the fashion centric brand with global appeal and local collections in emerging markets, will soon make its debut.
