Cost Plus signs e-commerce deal with GSI

KING OF PRUSSIA, Pa. GSI Commerce announced it has signed a multiyear agreement to provide Cost Plus World Market with e-commerce technology, order management and interactive marketing services, including design and e-mail marketing. Cost Plus World Market also renewed its agreement with GSI for fulfillment and call center services.

The new Cost Plus World Market online store is scheduled to launch on GSI's technology platform this summer.

"When we were searching for a new technology platform, we were looking for best-in-class features and operating capabilities at a cost advantage to what we could operate on our own or with another provider. After an extensive review of solutions, we determined that GSI was clearly the market leader in this space and the best fit for our needs," said Warren Mazer, director of e-commerce for Cost Plus World Market. "We were similarly impressed with their marketing services offerings. Based on our experience with GSI's fulfillment and call center services, we knew that each component of their solution is world class."
