Vera Bradley has plans to open a pop-up shop in NYC, replacing a shop occupied by Kate Spade through the end of last May. Opening in September, the pop-up shop will be 2,700 square feet over 2 stories and will carry the entire Vera Bradley collection. The store will also be the grand debut of Vera Bradley’s redesigned logo and store concept. Vera Bradley

The store is geared toward an omni-channel customer experience, with interactive touchscreens allowing customers to participate in the “It’s Good to be a Girl” campaign over social media. Three digital wall displays will display virtual patterns. A kiosk in store will open shopping on VeraBradley.com.

“We are thrilled to open our first Vera Bradley store in New York City,” said Robert Wallstrom, CEO, Vera Bradley, Fort Wayne, Ind. “We look forward to showcasing our iconic collections and signature in-store experience to both the local community and tourists.”

Accelerated Analytics has worked with Vera Bradley to provide POS sales and inventory reporting and analysis for their key retailer accounts and independent specialty retailers since 2013.
