StoreNext to market IBM POS for grocery, c-store

April 29, 2008

DALLAS — IBM announced that it will work with StoreNext Retail Technologies LLC, a subsidiary of Retalix Ltd., to market pre-packaged retail solutions powered by IBM point-of-sale systems for independent and regional chain grocers.

StoreNext is the industry's leading supplier of retail technology to independent grocers, and it is the only retail IT firm that focuses exclusively on meeting the needs of the wholesaler-served market of independent grocers and regional chains.

StoreNext will now add IBM point-of-sale (POS) terminals to its solutions portfolio. Retalix and StoreNext software applications on powerful IBM POS units will give clients greater flexibility and choice to meet their IT requirements, and enable StoreNext with IBM to extend its leadership to untapped markets in this space.

The agreement calls for StoreNext to market IBM SurePOS retail terminals with StoreNext ISS45 and ScanMaster grocery point-of-sale software solutions. The company will also bundle the IBM platforms with the Retalix StorePoint POS solution for the convenience-fuel retail market.

With this announcement Retalix/StoreNext becomes the first solution provider to join the IBM Retail Store Solutions Industry Remarketer Program, also announced today.
