Easons, Irelands largest retailer Live with Avensia Storefront
Easons has an ambition to be in the forefront of their industry, which shows in their recent omnichannel project. After evaluating different ecommerce platforms, Easons chose Episerver together with Avensia Storefront as the Unified Commerce solution.
Easons was originally founded in 1819 as Johnston & Co. Since that time it has grown to become the main supplier in Ireland of books, newspapers and magazines. Today, Eason have more than 60 stores in both the Republic of Ireland and Northern Ireland.
