According to industry analysts the retail industry growth is set to outpace the GDP growth rate in India. The organized sector retail growth is estimated to be in 20 to 25% driven by changing lifestyles, strong income growth and growth in consumer credit. Adoption of technology will be instrumental in accelerating the growth of this industry. This booming sector is keen to adopt standardized business solutions which are comprehensive & integrated to be able to ensure high operational efficiencies across sales channels.

A product of Landsteinar Strengur, one of the leading company developing retail and hospitality solutions based on Microsoft Dynamics for the international arena. LS Retail suite of solutions have been successfully used by more than 9000 stores across 130 countries and translated into 30 languages. Some of the key clients of LS Retail are IKEA, Adidas, NAAFI, National Gallery UK, Esso, Shell, Pizza Hut, Booths supermarket, Moss Pharmacy and Concept Sports International and many others.
Here is what clients have to say-
“The former infrastructure, server & client, based on Linux and related solutions was outdated and did not offer an efficient enough database to handle the huge amount of data that a fast-growing business demands. Moreover, there were major integration difficulties with other ERP systems, I think that Microsoft offers an advanced vision of the products with precise warranties of development and a high level of benefits compared to other vendors, also open source solutions, which do not offer the same transparency. ”
Massimiliano Cantoni, CIO, MIT.
“Users are pleased with the easy interface of the system (touch screens) and training time has been dramatically decreased when compared to the old system. Initial diehard opponents, our delivery personnel, are now the biggest fans of the solution! The Home Delivery module proved to be the easiest to operate of all systems we previously tested and compared based on touch screen technology. Conversion from Belgian Francs to the new Euro went smoothly. At our HQ, all data is now centrally controlled, making it easy to monitor our business. Information to and from the restaurants is handled by Infostore’s Multistore module. This module makes it possible to centrally provide all restaurants with the same data in 1 single action. The use of Infostore as a POS system is only the first step. When we combine Infostore POS with our existing MBS – Navision accounting system, we will take full advantage of the new possibilities.”
Jürgen Corsten, Store Systems Manager at Pizza Hut Belgium
“Landsteinar Retail solutions have enabled Kaupas to quickly seize opportunities for expansion into new market areas. The system can easily expand to include new stores and product lines. POS functionality and user interface are completely customizable which gives us excellent control at the front end. We now have a complete solution from the Back office to POS’s and the executive information systems.”
Bjarni Asmundsson, IT Manager, Kaupas
