Barneys New York teams with Micros-Retail for mobile POS

Westboro, Mass. -- Micros-Retail, a division of Micros Systems, said Wednesday that Barneys New York has launched the Micros-Retail miStore mobile point-of-sale solution in its flagship New York store, starting this holiday season.



Barneys New York, a current customer of Micros-Retail for point of sale, loss prevention and order management solutions, will use the new mobile solution to help streamline multiple transaction stations created by its multi-faceted holiday campaign around Gaga’s Workshop. The campaign includes holiday windows, a dedicated Gaga interactive website, and a transformed retail environment.



"The mobile POS will help Barneys New York to manage the high volume of expected shoppers and allow quick checkout …" said Sean O'Reilly, VP information technology of Barneys New York.



Barneys New York is using the holiday season to launch Micros-Retail miStore mobile POS, with plans to expand to stores across the country. The mobile system allows more freedom for employees to navigate throughout the store to better service shoppers, as associates are able to conduct sales and locate inventory via portable Apple products, predominately the iPod Touch.
