Retail Manager Solutions is delighted to announce that Poundland, Europe’s biggest single-price discount retailer, has chosen Metro Unified Comms and Metro Print Solutions to enhance its Store Communications and In-store Ticketing.
Using a common platform, all metro modules—there are nine to choose from—operate seamlessly with each other, removing the need for dozens of expensive and difficult-to-maintain applications from different vendors to consolidate into one interconnected suite.
The Unified Comms module will provide Poundland with a host of functional capabilities to manage communication and task management across its estate of 900+ stores. This includes the ability to send Voice, Video, and Written communications to individuals working in the store, ensuring they only hear, see, and read information or tasks that are relevant to them or their role.
In addition to Unified Comms, they are also deploying Metro Print to streamline how Poundland creates, deploys and manages its in-store signage. All signage from everyday lines and special buys to offers and discounts can be created and fully deployed in minutes ‘on-demand’. Metro Print ensures that only the most current version of any signage is used, and any damaged or missing signage takes just a few minutes to reprint. The rollout is targeted to be completed during Q2.
