Kazyon selects iVend Retail for omnichannel expansion initiative

Egyptian retailer, Kazyon, Tawfeer for Food Products, is set to implement a range of iVend Retail solutions.

Now into its fourth year of business, kazyon has 300 stores and plans to grow to more than 1,000 over the next three years, double its warehouse capacity and serve all regions of Egypt via its own fleet of vans and trucks.

A first phase roll-out across 370 stores will deploy iVend Point of Sale, Web Viewer for role-based online access to Reporting & Analytics intelligence dashboards and integration with existing Enterprise Resource Planning, SAP IS Retail. The second phase will include millions of iVend Loyalty member accounts and Passes digital notifications, plus Handheld inventory management, Mobile PoS and integrated online commerce module, and eCommerce to integrate with call centres for home delivery services.

“As we move to more than double our operations in the next five years, the challenge was to find a software partner who understood our business and had the ability to support the speed of our expansion,” says Ismail Hafez, Marketing Head, Kazyon, Tawfeer for Food Products. “The comprehensive omnichannel capabilities we are gaining from iVend Retail give us confidence in their ability to support us today and as we grow and mobilise our sales channels.”
