Ten thousand products, weekly host files, fresh produce on the scales and labels by the hundred. BetterRetailer is built for exactly that, and runs in our own store.
What does an independent supermarket need from a POS?
Fast scanning and weighing at the till, host files from your buying group loaded without re-keying, shelf labels that match the till, accurate stock across 10,000+ products, and supplier invoices entered without hours of typing. That's the core of BetterRetailer.
Host files from New Sunrise, Metcash (Friendly Grocer, IGA) and SPAR
Scales and price-embedded barcodes for deli, meat and produce
Shelf labels with unit pricing on A4, Zebra or electronic shelf labels
Stocktakes by aisle on handhelds while you trade
Expiry tracking on dairy, bakery and chilled, with markdown stickers
How does it handle fresh produce and deli?
Fruit and veg sell by weight on a till-connected scale or from quick keys; deli and meat labels from your scale use price-embedded barcodes that the till reads directly. Scale item lists can be exported from the back office.
Can it handle my buying group's promotions and price changes?
Yes. Each week's host file shows every cost, sell and promotional price change for you to approve; approved changes reach the tills in seconds and queue their shelf labels.
What about local suppliers that aren't in the host file?
Bread, milk, ice, drinks and local produce invoices are photographed and read by AI, matched to your products and received in one step.
Common questions
Is BetterRetailer approved by my buying group?
+
We read the standard host-file formats of New Sunrise, Metcash and SPAR so your prices and products load correctly. Ask your buying group about any scan-data or reporting requirements and we'll show you how BetterRetailer meets them.
How many products can it handle?
+
Our own store runs over 10,000 products; the tills search and scan instantly because each till holds its own copy.
Can I switch from Futurenet?
+
Yes. We import your Futurenet product export and run alongside Futurenet on one till until you're happy to switch. See switching from Futurenet.
