Creation of a new consulting business unit dedicated to distribution, retail, and luxury

Hardis Group is creating a business unit entirely dedicated to consulting for players in the distribution, retail, and luxury sectors. This new entity offers end-to-end support to stakeholders in this sector, from defining their business and IT strategy to operational implementation of projects. Led by David Perrais, this new business unit reflects our ambition to significantly accelerate our efforts in this key sector.

Hardis Group has been offering strategic and digital transformation consulting services for about twenty years. In recent years, the company has aimed to verticalize its offerings. Within this context, the business unit was created, fully dedicated to consulting for the retail, distribution, and luxury sectors, and structures its offering around the following areas:

• Strategy and organization consulting: evolving consumer habits, personalization of the customer experience.
• Technology selection and acceleration: focus on AI, cloud, data, and protection against cyber threats.
• End-to-end project support: project management, operational implementation of transformation projects.
• Digital commerce: digital marketing, e-commerce and marketplace solution integration, natural referencing (SEO) improvement.

This new business unit already comprises around thirty consultants, based in Paris, Grenoble, Lyon, and Nantes, capable of assisting mid-sized and large companies in their strategic thinking ahead of digital, operational, and IT transformation projects.

It is led by David Perrais, who brings 25 years of experience in this sector, gained at companies such as Galeries Lafayette, SMCP, Decitre, and Frans Bonhomme.
