Cotton On’s Iconic link

- DAVE CAIRNS

COTTON On products are set to be available at one of Australia's largest online fashion and sports retailers, The Iconic.

The Iconic will offer the Cotton On Group’s key suite of apparel, footwear, accessory, gifting and stationery brands, including Cotton On, Cotton On Body, Rubi and Typo, from June.

The move adds Cotton On to The Iconic’s offering of 800 brands and more than 50,000 products.

The Iconic is the Cotton On Group’s first third-party wholesale partner in Australia, with the digital expansion building on the North Geelong-based group’s global presence of more than 1400 bricksand-mortar stores and online sites in 18 countries.

The two companies will build on their new relationsh­ip later this year as The Iconic prepares to announce new categories to the site over coming months.

The Iconic CEO Patrick Schmidt said Cotton On was one of the greatest fashion success stories in Australia.

“For us, working with Cotton On is the result of our unwavering mission to deliver our customers the brands they ask for and be a continuous source of inspiratio­n for the latest fashion trends and styles,” Mr Schmidt said.

The Iconic site has 10 million visits a month and Cotton On Group CEO Peter Johnson said the new partnershi­p would make it easier for cus- tomers to shop for Cotton On brands.

“We want to be where our customers are shopping and The Iconic is one of those destinatio­ns,” he said.

Cotton On orders made via The Iconic will be sent from The Iconic’s fulfilment centre, meaning shoppers will have fast access to Cotton On products, including same-day delivery to Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane and Adelaide metro areas.
