Episys has an impact at Friendly Stores
Episys has been selected to supply its Immediate Impact signage solution to the owner of two franchise supermarket stores in South Africa – Friendly Stores and Seven Eleven.
The Immediate Impact solution will produce professional signage for the retailer by using a hosted signage solution. All users need is a computer with a web browser and a printer.
Alan Parry, owner of Friendly Stores, says: “We attended the Episys Signage Convention in Cape Town September and we were so impressed with the product, we requested a meeting there and then to discuss the benefits that Immediate Impact could deliver to our business.
“We’re currently producing A4 signage on a PC, which is time consuming and can lead to mistakes. In addition to this we have a sign writer visit the stores on a weekly basis, to paint the outside of the store with our offers of the week. With the Episys solution we will produce in-store colour signage and this will save us time and money, and ensure that a consistent, branded message is visible to our customers.”
Peter Lewis, marketing director at Episys, comments: “Immediate Impact™ will deliver the stores with an effective, low cost signage solution. It means any retailer without an IT department, designers or a sophisticated IT package can produce professional looking signage, crucial for communicating a clear, joined up proposition to customers.”
Powered by the Episys Retail Enterprise Suite, Immediate Impact provides retailers with a user friendly solution that’s easy to learn and easy to use. Users can create and print professional signage within minutes, and investment in the system is kept to a minimum, with a ‘pay per use’ mechanism that only charges for the signage printed.
Episys’ Signage Convention in Cape Town was held in conjunction with its South African partner HOLDiT.
