    retailcommon.com is thrilled to announce its entrance on the North
American retail scene. Designed and launched as a tool to facilitate the
online communication between buyers, retailers, distributors, and agents,
the site is poised to optimize buying and selling within industry
players. The platform offers its users efficiency and security via a
single, interactive site that manages all online sourcing, ordering,
re-ordering, pre-buying, meeting booking and facilitation. The very
nature of the platform also helps users reduce their carbon footprints by
streamlining and leveraging localized distribution channels and
supporting local retail. And as an added bonus, for those retailers
without their own e-commerce capabilities, the site also offers the
ability to connect directly with consumers, allowing them to shop online
from the array of local retailers in the retailcommon community.

    "I am excited for RC. This is a great movement and we appreciate how long
and hard they have worked" says Robin Kay, President Fashion Design
Council of Canada and Executive Director LG Fashion Week.

    Focused on streetwear, premium fashion brands and retailers, retailcommon
has already forged significant relationships with some of the major
tradeshows in the industry. Ranging from the official platform for Lines
on Line to its platform integration into LG Fashion Week, retailcommon is
helping to simplify the numerous relationships and needs of the fashion
industry. In addition, retailcommon will also be highlighted at both the
Capsule and Compass tradeshows over the coming few months.

    With new members of the North American fashion community signing up
daily, retailcommon is poised to become one of the fastest growing, most
functional tools the industry has seen to date. According to retail
consultant Luis Padilla, "retailcommon.com has the potential to change
how brands and retailers go to market".

    "Having worked in this industry at all levels from retail to agency to
distribution for over 15 years I have never come across a more
innovative, forward thinking concept. The platform syncs all aspects of
our business with the invaluable B2B tools and open communication within
the community. It will revolutionize the way we do business" says Rick
Buchanan, President of Spearmint Pelican sales.
