On the back of Vexall’s resounding success within the retail pharmacy market, Vexall is looking to deliver the same value for other segments of the retail market. Considering an inherently deep understanding of the fashion and general merchandise industry within Vexall’s ranks, expanding to other segments of the retail market came naturally.
As Vexall embarked on this new chapter of its exciting journey, an opportunity presented itself to partner with a technology provider that shares similar values, work ethic, and a very specific vision for the fashion and general merchandise industry.
Vexall’s search for a suitable technology provider led to Vexall’s partnership agreement with the Australian based Retail Directions, which, like Vexall, is exclusively focused on the retail industry - a key deciding factor in forging the partnership.
Vexall’s synergistic partnership with Retail Directions presents clients with a multitude of opportunities and associated benefits which are delivered through the implementation, support, and maintenance of an end-to-end and completely integrated retail platform that is purpose-designed for retail chains.
For clients that do not require a change to their entire retail systems, Vexall support services are also available on a standalone basis and customizable in alignment with client specific requirements.
