Case Study: tentree achieves faster, scalable product development with Centric Software's Centric PLM

tentree Plants their Digital Foundation to Achieve Success with Centric PLM™

tentree, the Vancouver-based sustainable apparel brand, grew rapidly from printing a few T-shirts to more than 500,000 annually, and its old mix of spreadsheets and email could no longer support the volume, traceability, and internal accountability needed to scale. As the company expanded its SKU count and product lines, it needed a better way to manage design, development, production, and supply chain transparency with Centric Software and Centric PLM.

Centric Software implemented Centric PLM, a cloud-based subscription platform that centralized product data and streamlined collaboration across design, merchandising, and line management. The results included cutting certain update cycles from up to two days to about one hour, reducing hours of manual work to 10–20 minutes in some design tasks, and improving speed to market and sustainability tracking. tentree also expanded categories from 15 to 20 while strengthening key sustainable-material partnerships.
