Reposs Ltd. has been appointed the only EPoS partner for WHSmith Local using the Reposs Core EPoS Software and Toshiba Global Commerce Solutions SurePOS and TCxWave hardware, after completing key development and successful WHSmith Local store trials.
WHSmith Local needed an EPoS Solution for their franchisees that could manage product supplied by WHS retail and also manage all the other products and services that are offered by a typical news agent and convenience store.
The Reposs solution included all the required features and the knowledge and experience of connecting retail to wholesale to develop the two-way electronic link to WHSmith retail.
The WHSmith Local Reposs link enables the retailer to stay up to date with the products supplied by WHS retail. This includes a product file with all retail prices, delivery notes for stock deliveries, promotions and special offers, stock order processing and key sales data processing.
Every WHSmith Local franchise will install Reposs EPoS software combined with a Toshiba POS system to help them manage their franchise to maximise turnover and profit.
Managing Director of Reposs, Paul Lansdale said, “We are very pleased to be the EPoS partner with the WHSmith Local franchise and we can see it is a great opportunity for independent retailers to get help and support to develop their business with a strong high street brand."
Head of WHSmith Local, Kevin Whitehouse said, “We looked at several EPoS systems and the Reposs EPoS software and Toshiba hardware had all the functionality our franchisees needed and the knowledge and experience to connect to WHSmith retail. Reposs met some very tough deadlines to keep the project on track and lived up to their good customer service reputation by attending to the needs of the franchisees when required."
European Sales Vice President, Toshiba Global Commerce Solutions, Alan Outlaw said, “We are pleased that Toshiba hardware was a clear choice for Reposs and WHSmith Local following an analysis of the needs for their customers and associates. The SurePOS and TCxWave systems will provide customers with a more satisfying in-store experience, while giving associates the cutting edge technology to best service their stores."
As the shopping landscape continues to change and diversify, Reposs is helping retailers like WHSmith find solutions like Toshiba that will enable them to compete in today’s fast-past environment.
