Retail

As a retail store, you have a couple of important accounting and customer service issues that other businesses might not have. Your point of sale system needs to be fast, efficient and integrated into your back office system as much as possible so that you have a rich history of customer sales. And your inventory system must be current so that you can manage out-of-stock situations to avoid lost sales while not buying too much inventory that doesn’t move. You might also need help with sales tax depending on the types of goods you sell.

We serve all types of retail stores, including e-commerce stores, mall and strip center stores, department stores, specialty stores, discount stores, “mom and pop” shops, grocery stores, convenience stores, warehouse stores, dollar stores, supermarkets, outlet stores, and kiosks. Our retail clients sell furniture, food, clothing, specialty items, jewelry, electronics, baby items, office supplies, books and magazines, toys and games, hobby items, household items, pet supplies, flowers and plants, hardware, outdoor supplies, and more.
