The team at Intelligent Retail understands that most independent retailers are not computer experts. They are business people that need a tool to help run the business better in a multichannel world. Business computer systems should be highly compatible with the way a business is run. That's why we believe in the right product for the right job, not generic tools made to fit. This is why we designed the Connect range of products for complete simplicity focussed around the needs of the independent retailer. Now you don't need to be a computer expert to benefit from them. Our 'one click' technology and visual stock management allows anyone to use Connect at the touch of a button. In May 2013 Intelligent Retail became part of the 3Q Group that includes Island Pacific, the provider of omni-channel systems to retailers including Primark, The Dune Group, Hamleys, Karen Millen and The Entertainer. Both companies have family business ethics and deliver high quality retail solutions, focussing on generating long term retail partnerships. Intelligent Retail's expertise in multichannel solutions for independent retail complements Island Pacific that specialises in retail merchandising, store operations, CRM, and multi-channel software solutions internationally for larger retailers. What we do Intelligent Retail is the first company to design a multichannel retail solution specifically around the needs of the multichannel independent retailers encompassing in-store PoS systems, eCommerce, mail order, telephone orders as well as online marketplaces. We prefer to look at it as a business management system because it helps in so many areas of the business. Our system called Connect is developed by a team that includes independent retailers, a business analyst trained at Harrods, software developers with over 20 years experience and an MBA qualified business manager. It came about when the owners of an independent retail business wanted a system to cover all sales channels in their company. When a suitable product could not be found, Intelligent Retail was formed and we developed our own. Connect multichannel is now helping retailers across the UK and Ireland to reap the rewards of improved profitability from increased revenue and reduced costs. As the team expanded, we have moved into new retail sectors with what many believe is one of the finest retail systems available on the market today.

Speaking at conference Why Intelligent Retail? There are so many companies selling PoS computer systems the choice is bewildering to say the least. Busy independent retailers with little experience of technology and limited funds for IT are understandably cautious. Now there is a new option. Intelligent Retail has designed a solution specifically for independent retailers. As your expert IT partner, we have selected hardware for you and spent over £750,000 developing software. We have other expert partners on board to help you get the most out of your investment.
