Lener Cordier modernizes product development with Kubix Link

After more than 70 years in business, Lener Cordier has undertaken a major transformation of its operations to modernize processes and support future growth. With Kubix Link, the company has centralized product data, improved the quality of technical documentation, and strengthened collaboration between its teams in France and Ukraine.

Key results

  • Centralized product data within a single platform
  • Standardized processes across teams and functions
  • Direct access to technical information for teams in France and Ukraine
  • Reduced manual exchanges and improved information sharing
  • Strengthened collaboration between French and Ukrainian sites

A family business in transformation

Founded in 1954 in Hazebrouck, Lener Cordier is a French family-owned company specializing in the production of coats, raincoats and jackets. Known for craftsmanship passed down through generations, the company has preserved its expertise while continuing to modernize. Today, the fourth generation has joined the family business, bringing a vision focused on product desirability and sustainability.

After navigating a challenging period, the company undertook a comprehensive review of its operations to build a more resilient and agile business model.

Modernizing processes to improve reliability

As part of this transformation, Lener Cordier sought to improve the reliability of its design and production processes while enhancing organization and product data management. Implementing shared tools became a key driver for standardizing practices and securing the data used across teams.

Deploying Kubix Link quickly emerged as a critical step in this journey. A Lectra customer for more than 40 years, Lener Cordier chose to continue its partnership by implementing Kubix Link to support this new phase of transformation.

Streamlining communication between France and Ukraine

Kubix Link has significantly improved the flow of information between French and Ukrainian teams. By centralizing product data within a single platform, the solution provides direct access to the information each user needs, regardless of location or role. This approach makes information more accessible, more reliable, easier to share, and less dependent on intermediaries.

Teams in Ukraine can directly access technical files, patterns and labeling specifications and share them with production lines without systematically going through headquarters. For Lener Cordier, this change has transformed communication between sites:

Kubix Link is used across all functions from creative teams to technical departments, including industrial engineering production scheduling and launch to prevent each team from working their own way in silos.Today, we're on a shared platform. It truly serves as the backbone of our information flow.

The company also highlights the quality of support provided by Lectra teams, particularly in user training and helping employees adopt the solution across functions.

Moving forward with confidence

Lener Cordier continues to transform its ecosystem to build a future defined by resilience, purpose, and long-term sustainability. While preserving the expertise that defines the company, it is equipping itself to meet evolving market demands and attract the talent that will shape its future.

By structuring processes and facilitating information sharing across teams, Kubix Link supports this ambition and continues to accompany the company's long-term transformation.
