NCR supports Fozzy Group’s ambitious modernization plans with NCR
RealPOS™ hardware and services
KIEV, Ukraine--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Dec. 22, 2015--
NCR Corporation (NYSE: NCR), the global leader in consumer transaction
technologies, announced today that the one of the largest trade
industrial groups in Ukraine, Fozzy Group is to continue its successful
partnership with NCR in 2016 to roll out a new store concept in its 600
supermarkets across the country. In 2014 Fozzy Group started redesigning
its stores to improve service for its customers. As part of its most
recent store modernization project Fozzy Group is using NCR
Point-of-Sale (POS) hardware and associated services deployed by NCR’s
long term partner, System Group.
Fozzy Group required an innovative, well-designed POS solution to match
its new store concept and reflect the group’s focus on premium-quality
products and customer service. Rolling out the new store concept is part
of Fozzy Group’s plan to double the number of stores over the next three
years. The company has been using a wide range of NCR’s RealPOS and
RealScan™ products for the last three years, including NCR POS
terminals, customer displays, scanners and keyboards.
“Looking forward, our business requires innovative solutions to provide
the best services for our customers,” said Ivan Slavioglo, CIO of Fozzy
Group. “We are opening high level, service-oriented stores with vast
food court zones and huge checkout areas. For each service we need the
best IT solutions available. It’s no wonder that we started strategic
partnership with NCR, which has provided IT solutions for retail more
than 130 years.”
The NCR RealPOS 40 features a modern design that complements today’s
retail stores, and has a small footprint that offers versatile
configuration options to optimize valuable checkout space. Its die-cast
aluminum casing enables fan-less operation and contributes to the energy
efficiency of the POS, thereby reducing the total cost of ownership. NCR
supported the Fozzy Group with advice on POS concepts by drawing on its
vast experience of deploying similar solutions around the world.
“Today’s customers are technically savvy and expect the checkout to be a
seamless experience,” said Andriy Pinkevych, Area Industry Leader for
Retail Solutions at NCR Russia. “A poor checkout experience can
negatively impact consumer trust and, ultimately, loyalty. We are proud
that our tried and tested RealPOS 40 solution was able to reassure Fozzy
Group of its value in direct comparison with competitive products and
are convinced it will ensure the very highest levels of customer
experience.”
Maintenance, service and support of the NCR solutions deployed by Fozzy
Group will be provided by System Group Ukraine, a long term partner of
NCR and Fozzy Group. System Group is the leading Ukrainian system
integrator for trade automation and a well-known provider of innovative
solutions for fast moving consumer goods production, distribution and
warehousing.
“We’ve been operating in the Ukrainian market for twenty years and have
developed a deep understanding of business processes and success factors
in complex retail environments. We are convinced that robust and
flexible POS solutions are crucially important for retail chains to
successfully provide a great shopping experience for its customers,”
explained Eugenie Galushin, CEO at Systems Group Ukraine. “Ambitious
retailers, such as Fozzy Group, require a premium solution for its
concept stores and to enable growth. NCR’s RealPOS 40 proved to be ideal
for Fozzy Group’s business processes. We are pleased to contribute to
Fozzy Group’s development by providing the solutions, support and
service that it needs.”
