Who is L’Occitane?
Founded in 1976, in the Provence region of southeastern France, L’Occitane manufactures cosmetic products using long-established ingredients. Since the beginning of the 90’s, L’Occitane started selling its products worldwide and increased its profitability. More than 90% of L’Occitane’s sales comes from outside France. Its retail network keeps expanding, with more than 2,500 boutiques in total (owned stores and concessions) in 100+ countries.
The Challenge
The number of L’Occitane stores kept increasing worldwide. L’Occitane needed a well-established international partner and an innovative management solution which can support a large number of stores across the globe.

L’Occitane’s management team decided to choose Yourcegid Retail. The main reasons were its robust functionality and its capacity to innovate with new features such as customer relationship management, omnichannel integration, and in-store mobility.
Cegid equipped more than 1000 stores with the help of local partners in several countries in Asia-Pacific, North and South America and Europe.
