“The Epicor Retail SaaS solution offered everything we were looking for,” said Yves Simard, president and chief executive officer, Bikini Village. “We wanted a solution that offered flexibility and could evolve over time as our business needs and requirements changed. Additionally, because we do not have an extensive IT support team, we were keen to find an outsourced solution that would offer us best-of-breed functionality without requiring a major investment in resources and talent to run the new systems.”
Simard says the Epicor Retail SaaS solution will help Bikini Village with its efforts to consistently replenish stores and provide an overall better experience for shoppers, improve margins, enable quicker turn, lower inventory and reduce the need for inventory markdowns.
The solution will also help Bikini Village address key compliance requirements, financial systems reporting and controls, and provide greater operational visibility. Bikini Village will also benefit from Epicor's multilingual help desk support.
“We're delighted to have the opportunity to add Bikini Village to our impressive roster of retail clients,” said David Henning, executive vice president and general manager for Epicor Retail. “Bikini Village has made great strides in reinventing and reinvigorating its business model, and the company's investment in Epicor's Retail SaaS offering will further the adoption of industry best practices as the company continues to hone its execution.”
