Quiet Platforms streamlines supply chains for high-growth brands through its nationwide network of strategically located fulfillment centers and last-mile delivery solutions—all orchestrated by cutting-edge data science and AI.

Perfect Moment currently dispatches its U.S. eCommerce customer orders from the United Kingdom, resulting in costly import duties. The new U.S. distribution centers will allow the company to pay duties based on transfer prices rather than higher retail prices, as well as lower its shipping costs. In addition to helping lower order fulfillment costs, Quiet Platforms’ AI-powered localized delivery system will improve the customer shopping experience with enhanced shipping and returns processing.

Perfect Moment expects to build upon its already rapidly expanding U.S. customer base, with its U.S. sales reaching nearly $10 million—or more than 40% of total net revenues—in its last fiscal year.

“Partnering with a cutting-edge supply chain management leader like Quiet Platforms accelerates our ambitious plans for the U.S. market and growing our multichannel business,” noted Perfect Moment CEO, Mark Buckley. “We expect the lower duty and shipping costs to greatly improve our eCommerce margin in the second half of the fiscal year. Moreover, we see the streamlining of our online customer’s journey to stimulate greater engagement and sales.”

Perfect Moment will use Quiet Platforms’ Click2Door platform, an end-to-end fulfillment and delivery solution, to permit predictable per-order costs that encompass the entire order journey, including receiving and storage, pick and pack, and last mile delivery.

“At Quiet Platforms we go beyond logistics to empower high-growth brands to achieve their full potential,” stated Bill Besselman, Quiet Platforms’ SVP of Supply Chain Strategy. “We look forward to being a trusted partner invested in the long-term growth and success of Perfect Moment.”

About Perfect Moment

Founded in 1984 in the mountains of Chamonix, Perfect Moment is a high-performance luxury skiwear and lifestyle brand. It blends technical excellence with fashion-forward designs, creating pieces that effortlessly transition from the slopes to the city, the beach, and beyond.

Initially the vision of extreme sports filmmaker and professional skier Thierry Donard, the brand was built on a sense of adventure that has sustained for over 20 years. Donard, fueled by his personal experiences, was driven by a desire to create pieces that offered quality, style and performance, pushing the wearer in the pursuit of every athlete’s dream: to experience ‘The Perfect Moment.’

In 2010, British-Swiss entrepreneurial couple Jane and Max Gottschalk took ownership of the brand. Under Jane’s creative direction Perfect Moment was injected with a new style focus, one that reignited the spirit of the heritage brand, along with a commitment to improving fit, performance and the use of best-in-class functional materials. As such, the designs evolved into the distinct statement pieces synonymous with the brand as we know it today.

Today, the brand is available globally, online and via key retailers, including MyTheresa, Net-a-Porter, Harrods, Selfridges, Saks, Bergdorf Goodman and Neiman Marcus.
