giggle Relaunches eCommerce Site On Demandware
The destination for new parents switches to the commerce cloud for a more stable and scalable digital commerce environment
Demandware®, Inc. (NYSE: DWRE), a leader in on-demand ecommerce, today announced that giggle, a leading baby specialty retailer that is the one-stop source for today's new parent, has relaunched its ecommerce site, www.giggle.com, on Demandware Commerce. The site showcases only the best baby products that have been carefully screened to meet giggle product criteria based on feedback from today’s new parents. It also features giggle’s Best Baby Registry, a sophisticated, interactive section that ushers expectant parents through the process of creating the perfect baby registry for their unique needs.
“Our mission is to make the transition from not having kids to having kids simple, easy and fun. Our website and Best Baby Registry are critical vehicles for reaching and servicing our customers. We needed a digital commerce solution that gives us the functionality and brand control necessary for delivering a superior shopping and gifting experience. With Demandware, we now have a flexible, scalable platform that we can leverage to grow our brand and continue to expand our reach,” said Ali Wing, CEO and founder for giggle.

With Demandware, they get peace of mind, knowing they have a best-in-class cloud commerce platform with industry-leading performance and uptime, capable of supporting its digital commerce strategy today and tomorrow,” said Jamus Driscoll, senior VP of marketing for Demandware.
