About Coty

Coty is a world leader in beauty and home to an illustrious roster of cosmetic, skincare and fragrance brands. As a company, its mission is to challenge the definition of beauty, to encourage authenticity and celebrate diversity. Located across Europe, Coty employs over 20,000 members of staff. Its portfolio includes 77 top brands such as Calvin Klein, Rimmel and Marc Jacobs and its products are sold in over 150 countries.

The Challenge

Due to the fast-paced nature of the cosmetics world, it is vital that the business has state-of-the-art business telecommunication and Microsoft collaboration tools, supported by a network that enables staff to work remotely 24/7 using the most up-to-date voice, chat and collaboration apps.

The business had taken the decision to relocate its HQ to London and therefore a complete design and fit for the flagship office, including network and telephony infrastructures was essential.

The Solution

The Results

The fault-free implementation and quick turnaround meant that staff were able to hit the ground running from the moment they entered the new HQ, and the organisation is also using Focus Group to undertake multiple implementation and configuration projects at various Coty locations.

"Focus Group got the basics right, they selected the best Cisco product sets and delivered impressive pre-sales knowledge, its quick turnaround on quotes and pricing, as well as supporting global ops in a timely manner."
