"As the leading American-based manufacturer of premium men's footwear and accessories, Allen Edmonds Corporation has enjoyed record growth in the past few years.

"We are very much looking forward to working with them as they continue to thrive and greatly improve their business processes with Dayforce HCM."

"With employees located at headquarters in Port Washington, Wisconsin and at retail locations throughout the United States, we require a single, all-encompassing system that optimizes our retail and international payroll capabilities, while simultaneously providing employee and business benefits across locations," says Jay P. Schauer, chief financial officer at Allen Edmonds Corporation. "Dayforce HCM is the ideal fit for our organization."
