Charlotte Tilbury turns to NetSuite cloud for business makeover

High-end Cosmetics Manufacturer and Retailer Selects NetSuite OneWorld to Transform Business Operations and Expand Global Presence

LONDON—23 October 2015—NetSuite Inc. (NYSE: N), the industry's leading provider of cloud-based financials / ERP and omnichannel commerce software suites, today announced that Charlotte Tilbury, a fast-growing manufacturer and retailer of high-end skincare and cosmetics, has selected NetSuite OneWorld to run its mission-critical business operations. Charlotte Tilbury plans to implement NetSuite OneWorld for financial consolidation, order management, inventory management, customer relationship management (CRM), multi-currency, multi-language, and multi-country tax compliance—all from within one single system. Charlotte Tilbury is also planning to leverage NetSuite’s flexible and powerful SuiteCloud development platform for its customisation needs and integration with other third-party systems to meet its specific business needs. This modernisation effort gives the brand the scalability, flexibility and agility it needs to achieve business efficiency and support its aggressive expansion plans.

Exponential Growth Presents Challenges
As the world’s number one make-up artist, Charlotte Tilbury understands the power of make-up like no-one else. With over 20 years at the forefront of the make-up industry, working with the world’s top models, photographers, celebrities and designers, Charlotte has poured her best-kept secrets into an edited ‘all-you-need’ skincare and make-up collection, which launched in September 2013.

As the brand experiences rapid growth and expands around the globe, it requires a platform that delivers scalability, agility and flexibility and with the advanced functionality to support this growth with a real-time, unified view of the business performance across markets. In addition, it has to be able to seize new market opportunities, establishing local subsidiaries quickly and easily, trading in local currencies and aggregating into its preferred base currency at its UK parent company.

“The speed at which we’re developing is incredible. We needed a business platform that could keep up with and help drive our business. NetSuite OneWorld is that platform,” said James Houston, Operations Director for Charlotte Tilbury.

Why NetSuite?
Charlotte Tilbury joins other successful businesses in the health & beauty sector that have turned to NetSuite to transform their business including Baylis and Harding, Epicuren Discovery, Anisa International, The Beauty Collective and Natural Labs.

“We underwent a rigorous process in our search for a long-term business partner to support our explosive growth,” Houston continued. “We needed the right balance between a user-friendly solution and one with deep functionality. NetSuite gave us an extensive demonstration of its functionality and it matched our business requirements and ambitions, perfectly.”

With support for 190 currencies, 19 languages, and automated tax compliance in over 50 countries, NetSuite OneWorld is Charlotte Tilbury’s business management solution of choice that can help the company achieve:

But as a busy woman herself, Charlotte knows that using this weapon must be easy and fool-proof from how you buy it to how you use it.
