FASHION CHALLENGE
Since opening in 1976, C&A has become a leading fashion retailer offering an assortment of private brands for different lifestyles and fashion needs. In order to maintain their success, C&A Brazil needed to revolutionize their retail brand experience and its presence at over 150 stores across Brazil.
C&A challenged Chute Gerdeman to create the ultimate buying experience with a new store concept in São Paulo. Because C&A’s trend-driven marketing and advertising campaigns enjoy instant recognition across the country, Chute Gerdeman needed to deliver C&A’s marketing promise in the store environment.


DESIGNED TO SHOWCASE PRODUCT
To highlight the extensive assortment and give more personality to hot categories, product is merchandised creatively through the use of flexible fixtures, walls, and tables.
Ultimately, the collaborative team created an in-store connection to the exciting C&A brand messages that customers see in the media. Their brand promise is evident in the design—fashion that’s first, fresh, and fast. Product assortment was maintained, and creative displays allow customers to see more of the Merchandise.
