CAMPBELL, Calif., October 21, 2025 – Centric Software® is pleased to announce that Golden Goose, the globally renowned luxury fashion brand, has selected Centric Planning™ to enhance merchandise and assortment planning operations. Centric Software provides the most innovative enterprise solutions to plan, design, develop, source, buy, make, price, allocate, sell and replenish products such as fashion, luxury, footwear, outdoor, home and related goods like cosmetics & personal care as well as multi-category retail to achieve strategic and operational digital transformation goals.
Founded in 2000 and headquartered in Venice, Italy, Golden Goose is globally recognized for its iconic handcrafted sneakers, fashion-forward apparel and accessories. The brand operates through an international network of retail stores, premium wholesalers and online platforms bringing its distinctive identity to fashion-conscious consumers worldwide.
Golden Goose first partnered with Centric Software in 2018 to drive efficiency across their product development process with Centric PLM™, replacing outdated, siloed systems to power their growth strategy. As the brand continued to expand, Golden Goose sought to streamline operations and better localize assortments with Centric Planning to unify planning in one flexible, scalable solution.
With Centric PLM already established as a central source of truth, Golden Goose has laid a strong digital foundation, introducing structure, visibility and alignment across product development teams. Building upon that foundation, PLM and Planning will form a connected, end-to-end workflow that supports smarter decision-making from product creation through to commercial execution.
Golden Goose selected Centric Software’s Merchandise Financial Planning, Assortment Planning and Strategy modules to enable a structured end-to-end planning workflow. Key benefits will include reduced manual work, ERP integration, improved reporting and shared visibility across global teams.
“We’re proud to empower Golden Goose’s growth journey,” says Chris Groves, CEO of Centric Software. “Golden Goose’s vision and innovation make them an ideal partner and we’re excited to help enable smarter planning and stronger performance through Centric Planning.”
