What Yunique Solutions does

Yunique Solutions Inc. is a New York-based developer of product lifecycle management (PLM) software that has operated as a wholly-owned subsidiary of Lectra (Euronext: LSS) since its October 2018 acquisition. The company's flagship offering, Gerber YuniquePLM, is a cloud-based platform designed for fashion brands, apparel retailers, and manufacturers to centralize product data, streamline collection development, and coordinate cross-functional and supply-chain collaboration across distributed teams. The system is positioned as a single source of truth for product information spanning the design-to-production workflow, targeting pain points such as fragmented collaboration, disorganized product data, and slow sample-approval cycles.

The Gerber Yunique product ecosystem comprises four components: the core Gerber YuniquePLM cloud platform; Gerber YuniquePLM Fast Start, a pre-configured deployment package with templates and pre-loaded industry-standard data including Pantone color libraries and A&E thread libraries; Gerber Design Suite, a native Adobe Illustrator plugin that allows design teams to create and modify styles, color palettes, and images directly within Adobe's environment; and Gerber YuSnap, a mobile application for capturing and synchronizing digital photos with the PLM library. Underlying technology is a cloud-delivered, multi-tenant platform supporting real-time data access across teams and integration with the dominant creative tooling used by fashion designers. The solution is also extended to the automotive vertical through Lectra's broader PLM and cutting portfolio.

Yunique generates revenue through recurring cloud subscriptions bundled with implementation services and ongoing support, sold on a custom-quoted basis via Lectra's global direct enterprise sales organization. The go-to-market motion is consultation-driven, targeting companies with cross-functional teams and supply-chain collaboration needs rather than self-serve or SMB channels. Co-founder Daniel Pak serves as president and chief technology officer, and the organization runs with 11-50 employees. The offering is positioned alongside complementary Lectra fashion products such as Modaris, Kubix Link PLM, Valia Fashion, and Retviews within a broader fashion software suite. No public pricing tiers, customer logos, or unit-level revenue figures are disclosed.
