fashion house department
This is a department/office in a retail clothing company. I asked the client to tell me what it means and this was their answer.
Le service de l’offre s’occupe de gérer l’offre produit des collections textile (plan de collection, objectifs de prix de vente et de marge, identité de style) de la marque ainsi que toute la communication/marketing autour de ce produit ( vitrine, merchandising, book de formation produits….)
I haven't got a clue!

| Hi writeaway, its funny, but the main reason I found this term so difficult to translate is because of the huge scope of responsibilties being borne by the department - the link you posted describes exactly this sort of nightmare job. So thanks! |

marketing department
All the activities described here are part of the marketing function. This could be a company that eschews the use of English words, whereas most French companies do use 'Marketing'
Note from asker:
| Hi Andrew, I know what you mean, but they do indeed have a marketing department. |

: or 'merchandising department' ... In Canada, we don't use 'service de l'offre'; we use 'marchandisage' in French ...
