The basic data for this study were gathered from apparel consumers in the Madurai district using a convenience sampling approach. In this manner, 250 apparel customers were contacted to gather primary data in the Madurai district. Hence, it is concluded that brand familiarity has a big impact on omnichannel marketing and purchase intention.omnichannel marketing and purchase intention are greatly influenced by technology readiness. Omnichannel marketing has a major impact on apparel buyers’ purchase intentions; thus, retailers must determine how prepared their customers are to use technology and offer assistance and technical support.
