In addition to the Dolcis, Invito, Manfield, PRO, Shick* and Steve Madden brands, other well-known brands are offered. The product range and service level are fully tailored to the needs and desires of customers and Intreza.nl aims to simplify the order and delivery process as much as possible. Intreza.nl is also preparing for the future. Lots of new, fun and handy features will soon be added to Intreza.nl, in order to make sure consumers find the right shoes online every time.

Cross-channel strategy

Macintosh Retail Group?s strategy is aimed at utilising as much buying and contact moments with customers as possible, using all sales and communication channels. Thanks to its unique position, with around 1,150 shops and extensive customer, product and market knowledge, Macintosh Retail Group has an advantage over ?pure players?, whose focus is solely on online sales. Macintosh Retail Group is therefore convinced that an integrated cross-channel approach that combines the best of both worlds is essential for future turnover and profit growth.

Frank De Moor, CEO Macintosh Retail Group: ?I believe Intreza.nl is an excellent initiative, not only for Macintosh Retail Group, but also for consumers. We offer consumers all types of shoes on each street corner as well as online. And we now plan to further expand our services to integrate online and offline activities more tightly. This will allow Macintosh Retail Group to become the largest cross-channel retailer in the Benelux.?
