Grocery retailers have never been under more pressure to meet shopper demands and stay ahead of competition, but legacy POS systems too often just can’t keep up. Today’s shoppers are less loyal, and since they have many new choices in how to purchase food, traditional grocers must provide engaging and hassle-free shopping experiences inside the stores to keep their customers coming back.
ENCOR helps grocers achieve this, with a modern POS solution that delivers more than point-of-sale — it’s a complete platform of service.
