The universities of Utrecht and Nijmegen, as well as various others within and outside the Netherlands, are closely involved with this unique client. The Gear Company from Utrecht provides the university with apparel through their specialists. No more fake Harvard sweaters, but high-quality merchandise straight from your own university. We are fans of Nijmegen, so go Nijmegen!
Once a university becomes a client of The Gear Company, it receives its own portal for ordering clothing. This makes it easy for students to directly order and have their clothing delivered. All of this is in the university’s chosen colors. In Nijmegen, we are Red; in Utrecht, we show Yellow. Naturally, this includes logos and ambiance images. Every student will feel like they are on their university’s own website.
You can shop in your familiar environment, and once an order is placed, it is processed directly within that same environment. With the OCI integration at The Gear Company, this is possible. Organizations like these place high importance on protocols and security, so it’s ideal to keep everything within their own environment and only communicate orders externally. This generates a lot of traffic to Marnix’s store.
