| Pickerings Choose Bleep |
| |
Background.
Pickering’s of Burslem is located in the lively town of Stoke on Trent. Their expertise, product knowledge and extensive range of angling supplies have made this a busy and successful sports fishing outlet.
"The shop with the stuff" is Pickering’s motto and with over 35,000 individual product lines and significant stock holding they mean what they say.
All of the staff are anglers themselves and can offer advice on all fishing needs. From tiddler to shark, they cater for all!
Solution.
Pickerings originally updated sales and stock records manually; this was both time consuming and error prone. Requiring more up-to-date and accurate data for business reporting they chose to implement Bleep Computing’s Retail Control.
In order to improve throughput and reduce operator error at point-of-sale, user-friendly touch screen till terminals were installed and networked.
Generating unique barcode labels from Retail Control by Bleep, with an in-built security tag, means that duplicate product labeling has been eliminated.
The Bleep system’s in-built report generator enables management to design their own reports on any aspect of the business.
Result.
Cost, resource and time saving. Improved security. Simple stocktaking. Accurate sales and stock reporting.
Managing Director Dave Pickering says, “As a successful angling retailer with such a vast and diverse product range it is imperative we have accurate control of all areas of our business. Bleep provides us with all the information we require to run our business more efficiently. With Retail Control by Bleep we also have the option to expand into a fully integrated e-commerce and customer tracking offering, giving us even greater awareness of customer buying trends and habits.”
