Some (who shall remain nameless) in our office who did not attend the Expo have questioned us about the forklift… was there really a forklift or were we just making it all up!  Well, be slienced all ye who doubt…. behold the (tiny yet still quite blokey) forklift!

Retail Expo Wrap Up

Well we’ve had another successful year at the Retail Expo, with a mix of both new contacts and existing customers coming to see the Pronto Team.

We received many positive comments from visitors about the stand and about PRONTO-Xi, with the integrated retail supply chain demonstration a stand out (apart from our little forklift, which we could have sold a few of)!

Thanks to the team who worked on the stand and those behind the scenes supporting us, it was a great team effort.  In a retail market where competition is tough and retailers are watching every dollar, Pronto Software is the best option for maximising business efficiency and gaining control of the bottom line.

So what is the key factor that differentiates Pronto from the rest?

the answer is simple…

Credibility and Commitment.

A Common Goal....

A common conversation theme we are hearing at the show is how to win in today’s highly competitive retail race.

Retailers are keen to find ways to meet the challenges of optimising back-end processes and maximising efficiencies without compromising service standards. The bottom line of controlling spending and maintaining margins remain as key priorities.

It has been great to be able to share Pronto’s vision for retail and how PRONTO-Xi can address the sophisticated needs of Retailers. The positive responses we’ve been getting on our product and services have been really terrific!
