Consequently, we started to use the Sentez POSitive Chain of Shops Management program without any interruption. Now, we can follow up the sales at all our shops on the basis of departments, shop assistants, products and product groups. We can also manage the periods that we call the most productive from our central office with all details in hand according to the definitions in our system. As a company well known with its principles and products by its efficient customer net, we now can consider more criteria in opening new shops. We believe that better days are not far away with the Sentez POSitive program that supports our projects.”
