How ARI helped Shoe Retailer in Dubai with Customized Retail POS Solution

Our client is into shoe manufacturing and is a retailer with 23 stores in Oman and Dubai combined.

This client wanted the software to effectively manage financial, manufacturing, inventory, and retail operations. It was a massive challenge because, on the one hand, we had to develop a customized Shoe Store POS System, and on the other hand, we also had to make sure it accommodated two distinct currencies.

Furthermore, this client has products with distinctive characteristics like brand, color, class, group, shape, size, and style. Their products are a combination of multiple characteristics. Hence, they required a solution to help them create unique products by integrating these characteristics.

Our primary areas of concern were multi-store management, offline and cloud capability, store to store/warehouse-to-store transfers with accurate cost management.

Additional aspects that needed to address were promotions management, implementation of gift cards/loyalty programs, and customer Group base automatic discounts, to name a few.

ARI’s team connected with this client to understand their requirements in detail and noted them. Next, we created a strategy to resolve their pain points & pressing issues. Once we gained a thorough understanding of their problems, we devised probable solutions for them.

After three rounds of discussions, our team implemented the ARI POS solution for their shoe manufacturing unit, resulting in optimal inventory management and improved retail operations.

Streamlined Retail operations

• A well-structured and role-based secure retail POS brings tighter control, optimizes the checkout process, & improves team coordination.
• Create daily/monthly/yearly sales budget and implement incentive management programs through real-time consolidated sales data at HQ.
• Streamline retail operations & boost productivity through the implementation of various modules like loyalty, staff discounts, promotions, gift vouchers, pricing, and others.
• There is no need to panic anymore during network outages or lack of internet availability. Through the offline capability, you can resume operations & sync data later.
• Other benefits include efficient stock auditing & adjustment, barcode printing & intuitive stock valuation inquiry.

Administration Cost Savings

• The shoe stores have experienced significant cost savings in postage costs, printing, and paper costs.
• All their paperwork is generated electronically; there is no longer a need for physical paper invoices, statements, or purchase orders.
• Presently, everything is driven through Business Central to the relevant clients and suppliers.

“Business has never been as smooth as this. Earlier, we had to make last-minute adjustments and employ additional staff to cross-check accounts & inventory. Thanks to ARI, those days are over.” – Director, Operations
