NEIMAN MARCUS EXPANDS PARTNERSHIP WITH CHARGEITSPOT

ChargeItSpot, one of the nation’s leading businesses for creating mobile phone charge station, is expanding its partnership with upscale Texas-based retailer, Neiman Marcus.

With the first wave of ChargeItSpot kiosks installed last week in Neiman Marcus’ Washington, D.C. and Tysons Corners stores, the companies have agreed to a planned nationwide roll out that will result in 37 custom-designed mobile phone charging stations to be installed across 30 Neiman Marcus locations by the end of September. The kiosks allow customers to charge their phones for free while shopping.

ChargeItSpot first partnered with Neiman Marcus in 2014 to test branded phone charging stations in its flagship Bergdorf Goodman store in New York City, and then expanded into additional Neiman Marcus locations in 2015.

“Neiman Marcus lives and breathes its core ethos of delivering an excellent customer experience and that includes keeping their shoppers’ phones charged,” said Douglas Baldasare, CEO and founder of ChargeItSpot. “The expansion of our relationship with Neiman Marcus underscores the value that complimentary phone charging provides to its retail shoppers.”

“At Neiman Marcus, superior customer service starts with a great overall experience in the store,” said Wanda Gierhart, CMO, Neiman Marcus Group. “The ChargeItSpot kiosks allow our customers to charge their phones securely while they shop. It is very important to us that we work with technology to continue to improve our customers’ experience.”
