Radial, Inc., a forefront leader in eCommerce solutions and a bpostgroup company, has officially promoted Shauna Bowen to the position of Executive Vice President, Chief Digital & Transformation Officer. This strategic move comes as the company prepares for the retirement of its Chief Technology Officer, Jim French, and aims to continue its trajectory of innovation and excellence in the eCommerce sector.
Bowen, who previously held the role of SVP of Strategy & Transformation at Radial, is now tasked with overseeing the Technology, Product, and Transformation teams. Her leadership is expected to drive Radial's next phase of digital innovation, building on the success of initiatives like the Radial Fast Track fulfillment solution. Launched in March, Radial Fast Track has already been adopted by seven modern brands, offering them a scalable, flexible fulfillment option that does not compromise on delivery speed or service quality.
Jim French, the outgoing CTO, has been instrumental in fortifying Radial's technology infrastructure and enhancing system reliability. His contributions have set a solid foundation for the company's future growth and digital transformation efforts. French expressed confidence in Bowen's ability to lead Radial into its next chapter, citing her strategic and innovative approach as key to the development and success of Radial Fast Track.
Under Bowen's guidance, Radial Fast Track has emerged as a pivotal solution for retailers navigating the complexities of today's logistics landscape. The solution addresses the growing demand for cost-effective and flexible fulfillment options, enabling brands to meet and exceed customer expectations in a volatile market.
Tom Schmitt, CEO of Radial, praised French's legacy of leadership and vision while expressing enthusiasm for Bowen's promotion. Schmitt highlighted the importance of digital transformation in the current eCommerce environment and believes that unifying product, technology, and transformation under Bowen's leadership will propel Radial to new heights of excellence.
Bowen's promotion is effective as of Jim French's official departure date on June 6, 2025, ensuring a smooth transition and continuity in leadership. This change underscores Radial's commitment to innovation and its dedication to providing seamless and reliable eCommerce experiences from click to delivery.
