SIR JOHN SOANE’S MUSEUM CHOOSES FUTURA - TO QUICKLY IDENTIFY RAPIDLY SELLING MERCHANDISE

London’s iconic Sir John Soane’s Museum has selected Futura’s EPOS and merchandising system. The museum was looking for a functional, easy to operate system that would analyse sales of Soane-related merchandise on a weekly basis, quickly identify best-selling lines to enable the gift shop to maximise profits early.

Futura’s ability to control stock and record this in multiple locations was another important function for the Museum, since merchandise is currently stored in different cupboards within the building, as space is at a premium, there being no actual stock room.

Julie Brock, Enterprises Manager, said : “We chose Futura because of the richness of functionality and it is such a simple and intuitive system to learn. As we grow we shall use more facilities within Futura such as collecting customer data for special promotions; its strength in holding historical data, its ability to predict trends and recommended reordering functions will be extremely beneficial.”

A new purpose-designed retail outlet will be one of the final stages of Sir John Soane’s Museum’s major restoration project ‘Opening up the Soane’, due for completion in 2012 and currently being fundraised for.
