Retail
Forty thousand SKUs
and a bin of loose screws.
You sell nails by the pound, timber by the length and paint mixed to order, and the till has to price all of it. We build the systems that cope, and keep the trade accounts safe.

Sound familiar?
The catalog is bigger than the shop
Half your stock is sold loose, by length or by weight. Most systems were built for barcodes.
- A contractor's account has a credit limit, and the counter only finds out it's blown when the invoice bounces.
- Paint formulas are on index cards, so matching a customer's color from last spring means rummaging.
- Bolts sold by the pound get rung up as 'misc', and the margin report can't tell you what actually sells.
- The supplier's catalog arrives as a forty-thousand-line spreadsheet, and loading new prices takes a week.
- Ice melt and snow shovels run out the same morning the forecast turns.
