Stewart Christie, Scotland's oldest tailor with a rich history dating back to the early 1700s, was transitioning into a new era under new ownership after being in the same family for four generations. With a heritage that includes serving Scotland’s distinguished gentry, including the High Constables of Holyroodhouse, the Royal Company of Archers, and several family estates, they wanted to ensure their legacy continued while embracing modern retail trends. Their primary goal was to enhance their e-commerce presence and streamline their inventory management system across both their physical store and online platform.
