Italian-Dutch denim and casual wear brand with European retail footprint
Garcia is a 51–200-person apparel brand built around jeans and casual wear, operating across Netherlands, Belgium, France, Germany, and Switzerland. The tech stack is dominated by SAP (ERP, S/4HANA, Fiori, Cloud Platform) alongside Qlik for analytics and Microsoft 365—a traditional enterprise retail stack. Hiring is sales-heavy (19 roles) with minimal engineering (2), and active projects cluster around supply-chain optimization, store operations, and compliance (CSRD, CSR), signaling a retailer in operational scaling mode rather than platform modernization.
Garcia designs men's, women's, and teen casual wear centered on denim. The brand pairs Italian design sensibility with Dutch casual style and operates a retail and franchise network across Continental Europe. The company is actively expanding store footprint (new store construction, store concept development) while optimizing inventory, supplier performance, and merchandise planning. Current operational priorities include CSRD compliance implementation, SAP S/4HANA module rollout, and addressing supply-chain friction (delayed deliveries, fast-selling product demand).
Garcia runs SAP ERP (including S/4HANA, Fiori, Cloud Platform) as its core system, Qlik for business intelligence, Excel for planning, Photoshop for design, and Microsoft 365 for collaboration. Infrastructure includes Windows Server, Ubuntu, and VMware.
Active projects include store expansion (new construction, concept development), CSRD compliance, inventory optimization across shop-in-shop locations, supplier performance improvement, and merchandise planning process optimization.
