“Like many others in our industry, we arrived at a point where the manual execution of daily activities was reaching a critical threshold. Our merchandise teams needed system support to free up time and be able to operate and strategize more efficiently,” explains Afzal Khushi, Director at Trespass.
“After extensive market research and discovery sessions, Centric Software was our preferred choice due to their ability to understand our nuances and their speedy alignment with our business practices. They were also our preferred partner as their ‘out of the box’ solution means we do not have to develop or redesign solutions for the business. Although we are at the start of our journey with Centric Planning, we are already seeing benefits that will confidently take us into the next phase of our successful journey.”
