“Open Retail’s system has saved me £300,000 in it’s first year”

Derek Keir – The Cobble Shop

“We work closely with Open Retail on improvements to our system. As they write their own software they are able to respond quickly to our requirements and ensure that it works for us”

George Mount – Roots at Thorpe Farm Shop

“Open Retail have been a great company to work with. Their simple to use EPoS software helps us to run our business more efficiently. The 7 day support has always been excellent and they go above and beyond to fix any issues”

James Barr – Woodlands Garden Centre, Kent

“I can’t recommend you highly enough. Smooth transition with a fantastic system, and some great laughs for the week”

Rory Mellis – I.J. Mellis Cheese

“Open Retail installed our EPOS system and software in April this year, customer service both before and after sales has been brilliant – any issues we have had with the till have been dealt with promptly and efficiently, with minimal disruption to service. All the staff we have dealt with in person or on the phone, including during training, have been friendly and knowledgeable and I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend the company.”

Emma Smith – The Heron Farm Shop

“Absolutely loving our EPOS… great support, especially during setup for our zero waste shop Re – including getting us up and running and confident pre-opening, and following up with us afterwards. And goodness me; it’s seamless!”

Lindsay Singh – RE

“The Open Retail till system is not perfect, no software is perfect, but they get the very highest recommendation from us.

The most impressive feature however is the service from the support team. Problems are solved there and then, even while you have a customer at the till.

It does everything you’d expect a till system to do, and has an impressive set of reports to help you analyse your sales, looking for the good and the bad.

We started from the very ground up, replacing Arkwrights till, and the system was installed and working within 2 days, with zero disruption to our customers.

As an ex IT manager, my favorite feature is the ability to upload products from an Excel spreadsheet (yes, very sad, but when you have to load 450 seed packets, that’s a lot of time and mistakes eliminated)

We cant wait to add out Tearoom to the system in the coming season”

Tim Bonnell, Head of Digital Transformation at Swiss Valley Garden Centre

“At Dunston Hall Estate, we run our Garden Centre and Bistro Till systems though Open Retail, the EPoS system is extremely user friendly and works seamlessly through all tills. In addition we recieve excellent customer service when needed.”

Matthew Feeney, Dunston Hall Garden Centre

“I started using the End Of Sale vouchers as I had a new instore butchery and wanted to help increase their trade.

It was surprising how effective this type of promotion was, with customers walking back into the shop to spend more money as soon as they had the voucher.

Now I have tried a few different versions of this type of promotion, and it works every time. I fully recommend you give this a try and see how you can increase revenues.”

Mark Ashby, Ashby’s Garden Centre

“We acquired new tills a few years ago through Open Retail Solutions for our garden centre. Since then the tills and Multi Retail system has really helped to grow the business. Adding products and promotions is really easy. Creating shelf edge labels in the shop or barcoded sticky labels for plants was all set up for us and works brilliantly. This basically means products can be zapped in using the barcodes, super quick on a busy day!

The back office allows you to pull reports quickly so can see the performance of our suppliers. Great for when doing preseason orders or deciding if something is working or not. The new online dashboard is great for looking at how well your doing at any time of the day. Their biggest attribute is customer service. They always have somebody at the end of the phone to help whether it’s developing the system further or if there is a technical problem.”

Steve Minshull, Minshull’s Garden Centre
