Technology continues to play a bigger role than ever in the modern convenience store and at the heart of that progress lies a great Epos system, as SLR heard when we spoke to Faisal Sattar of MHouse Solutions.
We all know that technology now sits at the heart of efficient convenience retailing and that’s only likely to become truer with every passing year. Much of in-store technology, however, relies on a powerful Epos system as the platform upon which a modern tech-enabled store is built.
So what are the key advantages of a modern, high-quality Epos system to convenience retailers? “A modern, high-quality Epos system offers convenience retailers streamlined operations, enhanced inventory management, improved customer service, and insightful sales data for strategic decision-making,” says Faisal Sattar of leading Scottish Epos providers MHouse Solutions.
“Our MPos system provides all of the above and is also backed by industry experts. Our system is one of the only systems truly developed and continuously developed by retailers.”
Examples of the latest developments embraced by MPos include electronic shelf edge labels, self-scanning, AI, CCTV and POS integration, as well as an AI retail analysis platform.
Of course, with so many solutions that retailers may be keen to take advantage of, one of the key challenges is ensuring that that these various solutions are compatible with existing equipment and hardware.
“We are all about looking after retailers, so we ensure that both existing and new customers do not need to spend money where they do not have to,” says Sattar. “Our MPos system can be provided on a wide variety of POS hardware and our support team can assess your current system to see if we can convert it over to an MPos system. Most likely the answer will be yes, if your current setup uses an up-to-date operating system.”
In addition, MHouse provides unlimited and ongoing training and also offers extensive advice on how to use MPos to get the most out of your store.
“Each system is built uniquely and we offer a wide range of bespoke packages,” says Sattar. “I would encourage retailers thinking about upgrading to get in touch with our sales team on 0800 242 5360 and we will be happy to have the conversation.”
