Bonds has an iconic brand, an impressive foothold in the retail market and a desktop online store that was already performing admirably. Carter’s focus was on mobile users while keeping the experience consistent across all platforms.

An audit of the site found that site load speed wasan area offering opportunity for improvement due to a large number of images being downloaded. CSS driven, responsive promotional tiles and banners that pack a vibrant visual punch across all devices have proven to be a significant innovation.
