Barron McCann
Last year, technology services specialist Barron McCann announced the acquisition of a majority stake in Retail247.
Financial terms of the deal were not disclosed.
Retail247’s platforms now line up alongside Barron McCann’s existing software suite, which features Merret Pro, a merchandise and warehouse management ERP, and Charity PoS and gift aid management software.
Scott Watson, Managing Director at Barron McCann, said: “Retail247 is a natural fit for our wider service and solutions portfolio, and this acquisition represents a key step in our expansion strategy. We are continuing to enhance the overall value we deliver to our customers across the group as we continue with our mission to provide a unified approach to technology solutions.”
Martin Schofield, Founder and CEO at Retail247, said: “Retail247 was founded on the principle of delivering technology projects precisely when and where they’re needed - making technology a true enabler of growth. Joining forces with Barron McCann brings together two forward thinking organisations with a shared commitment to innovation and customer success. By combining our strengths, we’re accelerating the delivery of intelligent, scalable solutions that help retailers adapt, evolve and thrive in a fast-paced, competitive landscape.”
2026 RTIH Innovation Awards
Data driven retail will be a key focus area at the 2026 RTIH Innovation Awards.
The awards are now open for entries and celebrate global retail technology innovation in a fast moving omnichannel world.
Our winners will be revealed at the 2026 RTIH Innovation Awards Ceremony, taking place at The HAC in Central London on Wednesday, 4th November.
Check out our 2025 winners here.
Our 2025 hall of fame entrants were revealed during a sold out event which took place at The HAC on 16th October and consisted of a drinks reception, three course meal, and awards ceremony presided over by award winning comedian, actress and writer Tiff Stevenson.
In his welcome speech, Scott Thompson, Founder and Editor, RTIH, said: “This is the awards’ fifth year as a physical event. We started off with just 30 people at the South Place Hotel not far from here, then moved to London Bridge Hotel, then The Barbican, and last year RIBA’s HQ in the West End.”
“But I’m conscious of the fact that, to quote the legend that is Taylor Swift, You’re only as hot as your last hit, baby. So, this year we’ve moved to our biggest venue yet, and also pulled in our largest number of entries to date and broken attendance records.”
He added: “This year’s submissions have without doubt been our best yet. To quote one of the judges: The examples of innovative developments across both traditional and digital retail spaces were truly remarkable.”
Congratulations to our winners, and a big thank you to our sponsors, judging panel, the legend that is Tiff Stevenson, and all those who attended our 2025 gathering.
