LAS VEGAS — Rite Aid Corp. was recognized for e-commerce growth at the 2016 Imagine Excellence Awards, held by digital commerce provider Magento Inc.

Magento said Rite Aid received the Growth Award for “extraordinary year-over-year growth across all channels,” powered by the Magento Commerce open-source, omnichannel e-commerce platform.

During the 2015 holiday season, Rite Aid saw triple-digit growth in transactions and revenue, according to Magento.

That growth, the e-commerce company said, was facilitated by Magento’s open architecture, which enables rapid development cycles and iteration plus site performance enhancements through enterprise features, such as full-page caching and sophisticated marketing tools.
