Retail Pro International Boosts Support for Retailers Building Omnichannel Strategies During COVID with Growth in Global Network of Authorized Retail Pro Business Partners


FOLSOM, CA, March 23, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Retail Pro International (RPI), developer of the POS and retail management platform for unified commerce, Retail Pro Prism, announced today the seven latest Authorized Retail Pro Business Partners added to the global network of local Retail Pro resellers to provide support for specialty retailers unifying commerce in response to COVID store closures.

“For over 30 years, we at Retail Pro International have been helping both global and local brands build their strategies on the Retail Pro software. In this critical time for businesses, we saw the need to provide more resources for our customers,” said Kerry Lemos, Retail Pro International CEO. “With the COVID flux in retail, solid guidance and support for retailers’ technology strategies has never been more important.”

While many retailers already had ecommerce operations in place when COVID forced store closures, others – including luxury and many global markets – had to rush to meet their customers online.

New web store launches not yet integrated with store POS systems brought forth many operational challenges in managing disparate data for inventory, customers, orders, and fulfillment across siloed technologies. 

“As a truly international company, we understand retailers’ needs are vastly different across regions. We stand firmly behind our intentionally diverse network of Retail Pro Business Partners to ensure our retail customers have timely, local support from consultants who know the regional requirements,” commented Bevin Manian, Retail Pro International VP of Europe, Middle East, Africa, Asia & Australia.

The addition of these new Authorized Retail Pro Business Partners, listed below, deepens Retail Pro International’s long-established network of worldwide support and technology consulting for specialty retailers implementing omnichannel strategies during COVID.

“The Retail Pro Prism platform is designed to give retailers utmost flexibility. Our accessible API allows the integration of brands’ ecommerce, ERP, marketing, clienteling, curbside pickup, BOPIS, order management, fulfillment, and other applications necessary for retail today, whether they are conducting business across channels or national and subsidiary borders,” explained Kevin Connor, Vice President of Product Management. “The pandemic has not only accelerated the timeline for unified commerce strategies many progressive retailers were already planning; store closures have also made omnichannel the base-level requirement for every retailer.”

With integrated technology as the cost of doing business today, retailers worldwide are working together with their Authorized Retail Pro Business Partners to evaluate their current technology gaps, modernize legacy systems, and lay foundations for streamlined technology and processes across channels.
