IT in Retail - by Retailware

  How can a Festive Retail be Techno-Modernized? Peak festive seasons bring joy, but they also bring long queues that can drive customers away. To keep your sales momentum high, integrating barcode scanning and touch-screen POS systems is no longer a luxury—it’s a necessity. By replacing manual entry with rapid scanning, you slash transaction times and eliminate human error. For high-volume sectors like Food & Beverages, Sweet Marts, Dry Fruit Stores, and Bakeries , every second saved at the register translates directly into higher throughput and happier guests. Touch-screen KIOSKs further revolutionize the experience by allowing customers to self-order . This is particularly effective for businesses selling dry fruits, ice cream, and snacks, where visual menus can drive upsells while freeing your staff to focus on preparation. This festive season, don’t let a slow checkout be your bottleneck—embrace the speed of touch and scan technology. Why These Systems Win During Festi...

Importance of systems? Have discussed all these topics in this insightful conversation with Mr. Ajit Thadani , Director of Retailware. बाहरी लोग सेठजी के जीवन की एक ही बाजु देखते हैं। वे केवल वित्तीय सफलता देखते हैं। लेकिन कड़वी सच्चाई यह है कि खुदरा विक्रेता/थोक विक्रेता अपनी दुकानें नहीं छोड़ सकते हैं। पारिवारिक समारोहों, त्योहारों और छुट्टियों में शामिल होना सिर्फ एक सपना है। साथ ही विकास कई बार एक दुकान तक ही सीमित रहता है। क्या 'गल्ला छोड़ा आगे बढ़ो' सच हो सकता है? प्रक्रिया क्या है? प्रणालियों का महत्व? रिटेलवेयर के निदेशक श्री अजीत थडानी के साथ इस बातचीत में इन सभी विषयों पर चर्चा की है। Actual Link : ...
