“We already used them for the garden centre so it was a natural choice to use them for the farm shop. The fact that Open Retail is an Avery Berkel scales dealer and their software if weights and measures certified already was a bonus”.

The Customer Background

Crumbs was originally a farm shop franchise based at the Shoots Garden Centre at Washington. Shoots eventually took the business over and installed Openxpos which ist uses in the Garden Centre and treated it as just another set of tills

Background

The Need for Change

The previous system had good freestanding scales for butchery and deli but nothing for loose fruit and veg which is the majority of the business.;

Change

The Solution

Install Openxpos touch till system with integrated weigh scales from Avery Berkel and the whole system from Open Retail is weights and measures certified.

Solution

The business now not only has a platform for serving the customers quickly and accurately but can monitor and improve the profit on different ranges of goods..
