"Unlocking Success through Omnichannel Synergy: FUNKY BUDDHA's Integrated Retail and E-commerce Approach in International Collaborations"
At FUNKY BUDDHA, we understand that the future of retail lies in seamlessly blending the physical and digital worlds. That's why we have developed
a comprehensive omnichannel strategy that combines retail and e-commerce as a powerful package. This strategy extends to our international
collaborations, whether it's through franchise or master franchise partnerships.
When entering a cooperative venture with FUNKY BUDDHA, we go beyond simply granting the rights to operate our brand in a particular country. We
strive to empower our partners / franchisees with the ability to fully embrace our omnichannel system. This means that they are encouraged to
establish a robust e-commerce platform alongside their retail store network or wholesale operations.
By doing so, they can tap into the immense potential of online sales and reach a wider customer base.
By integrating retail and e-commerce, our international partners can benefit from the synergies that arise from offering a seamless shopping

doorstep or visit a physical store for a personalized shopping experience. This flexible approach not only enhances convenience for customers but
also allows our partners to maximize their sales potential and strengthen customer loyalty.
Moreover, our omnichannel strategy enables our partners to leverage valuable customer insights and data. By integrating their e-commerce platform

  • 3. 2 0 0 5 Founded in Athens by Yannis K. Alexiou and sons
  • 4. Milestones ALTEX S.A. was established with the launch of the FUNKY BUDDHA brand, which initially presented a successful albeit restricted collection during its inaugural season. However, the subsequent season promises to witness a significant expansion of the brand's product portfolio, encompassing a broader range of categories. 2005 The company successfully completes the acquisition of its new company- owned headquarters and proceeds with the relocation process. Simultaneously, significant investments are made towards the establishment of an expanded logistics and distribution center situated in Athens. 2006 The company unveils two exciting new additions to its brand portfolio: Fifty- Five GARAGE Dry Goods & Supplies and SECOND SKIN. These introductions serve to enhance and diversify the company's existing range of offerings. Additionally, the Greek Wholesale market witnesses the debut of 55 GARAGE, a contemporary casual line that promises to captivate the fashion-savvy audience with its distinctive appeal. 2011 FUNKY BUDDHA makes its entry into the Greek Retail Market, strategically establishing its first pilot shops and two corners within Attica Department Stores. This move marks a significant step towards expanding the brand's presence and capturing the attention of the Greek consumer base. 2013 ALTEX sets cornerstones for international expansion with new retail locations and 3PL partnership. 2014 FUNKY BUDDHA launches its Women's Collection, bolstering its retail presence through a combination of company- owned and franchised stores. The company undergoes a reorganization of its infrastructure to support both retailing and international expansion efforts. Additionally, the brand introduces its e-shop, emphasizing a customer- centric shopping experience as a core value within its brand philosophy. 2015-16 2017-19 FUNKY BUDDHA successfully enters the European market, adopting an omnichannel retailing strategy. Rapid development of European wholesale is achieved, with a strategic focus on established marketplaces such as Zalando, Otto, and AboutYou, operating successfully across multiple European countries. Through these marketplaces, the brand effectively reaches and introduces itself to European customers. 2020 2021 2022 COVID-19 lockdown ushers in the era of digital dominance, transforming consumer interactions and shopping experiences with the brand through powerful omnichannel strategies. In the second year of the COVID-19 pandemic, the company achieves its highest- ever financial performance. E-commerce experiences remarkable growth, while retail gradually gains momentum in the latter half of the year. To capitalize on this trend, the company launches a redesigned e-shop and introduces new e-commerce channels. Collaborative partnerships with third-party e- players further amplify online sales, fostering increased revenue in the digital realm. Company moves to new HQ, expands retail stores, and experiences soaring e-sales, including a significant surge in cross-border transactions.
  • 5. About Us We Sp eak Beyo n d Fash io n “Fashion is undeniably one of the most influential forms of expression in our modern culture. It has the power to shape and articulate complex and fascinating personalities, serving as a medium through which individuals can convey their unique identities.” (Kostas Alexiou – CFO & Co-Founder)
  • 6. Founded in 2005, ALTEX S.A. is a prominent European fashion retailer renowned for its design and distribution of fashion products that exude a unique character, setting them apart from the rest. With a driving force fueled by passion, determination, and intuition, the company crafts garments that serve as "canvasses of expression," empowering individuals to be true to themselves, feel confident, and stand out in any crowd. The company's portfolio comprises three distinctive brands: FUNKY BUDDHA (Retail & Wholesale), 55 GARAGE (Wholesale), and Second Skin (Licensing). These brands offer dynamic, comfortable, and uplifting lifestyle clothing for both men and women. With a strong emphasis on quality and attention to detail, the garments reflect pure enthusiasm, freedom of expression, and a remarkable sense of style sought after by those who embrace authenticity, creativity, daringness, and confidence. Each fashion collection serves as a manifestation of a vibrant way of life, catering to individuals who view fashion as a means of self-expression rather than merely following trends. This philosophy forms a cornerstone that inspires both the company and its customers alike.

That's why we have developed a comprehensive omnichannel strategy that combines retail and e-commerce as a powerful package. This strategy extends to our international collaborations, whether it's through franchise or master franchise partnerships. When entering a cooperative venture with FUNKY BUDDHA, we go beyond simply granting the rights to operate our brand in a particular country. We strive to empower our partners / franchisees with the ability to fully embrace our omnichannel system. This means that they are encouraged to establish a robust e-commerce platform alongside their retail store network or wholesale operations. By doing so, they can tap into the immense potential of online sales and reach a wider customer base. By integrating retail and e-commerce, our international partners can benefit from the synergies that arise from offering a seamless shopping experience across multiple channels. Customers can browse and purchase products online, and then choose to have them delivered directly to their doorstep or visit a physical store for a personalized shopping experience. This flexible approach not only enhances convenience for customers but also allows our partners to maximize their sales potential and strengthen customer loyalty. Moreover, our omnichannel strategy enables our partners to leverage valuable customer insights and data. By integrating their e-commerce platform with our centralized systems, they gain access to comprehensive analytics and reporting tools. This valuable information can be used to drive targeted marketing campaigns, optimize inventory management, and enhance overall business performance. At FUNKY BUDDHA, we firmly believe that the success of our international collaborations lies in embracing an integrated retail and e-commerce approach. By extending the benefits of our omnichannel system to our partners, we ensure that they are well-positioned to thrive in the ever- evolving retail landscape.
