Seamless Growth: How Ataway Japan Helped Maison Kitsuné Strengthen Its IT Foundations
THE CHALLENGE
Since its founding in 2002, Maison Kitsuné has grown rapidly into a globally recognized lifestyle brand. In Japan, that growth created an urgent need for an IT infrastructure audit to assess systems and support future expansion.
Maison Kitsuné Japan needed a partner that understood the local market, spoke the language, and could help bridge operational gaps with headquarters in Paris. That’s where Ataway Japan stepped in.
THE PROJECT
Ataway conducted a comprehensive IT infrastructure audit of Maison Kitsuné Japan’s systems and supply chain processes. Despite a tight timeline, we delivered the audit in just over 3 months—on time and in full.
KEY CONTRIBUTIONS
– Clear, structured documentation of systems and workflows
– End-to-end process interviews with local IT and business users
– Recommendations aligned with global business needs
THE IMPACT
With the completed IT infrastructure audit, Maison Kitsuné gained:
-A clear, formalized understanding of its IT and supply chain processes
– Strategic insights that support coordination with HQ in France
– A stronger foundation for future innovation and global expansion
