Part of Touchretail's stand at the Manchester Furniture Exhibition
The FRS-POS and X-Margin Furniture Software shown by Touchretail was a great success at the Manchester Furniture Exhibition earlier this week. After the stand set-up day on Saturday, and four days of being on the exhibition stand, it’s a lot more exhausting than other forms of promoting the products, but the response proved that there is still a place for exhibitions.

Roomes Furniture
Sunday, December 6th, 2009Roomes are an AIS member furniture retailer whose family-run business has traded successfully for 120 years, and operates from a modern furniture store in Upminster, Essex.
Having operated the FRSnet furniture stock system for some years, Roomes have been looking for an accounting system that provides a good integration to their stock system.
Roomes
Touchretail can supply the FRSnet furniture stock system and provide training and support services, and already have fully integrated systems with other furniture retailers.
Touchretail’s Retail Accounts accounting and management reporting software not only provides seamless integration to FRSnet, but also interfaces to the AIS Cenpac electronic statements and invoices system.
After Touchretail provided the software and implementation services on time and within budget, managing director Michael Roome commented: ‘Retail Accounts will allow us to streamline our back office systems. This is an exciting time for us in bringing our systems up to date and I am looking forward to reaping the benefits from this investment’.
C & H Fabrics Accounts
Sunday, April 5th, 2009With 7 stores in the South East of England and a head office in Tunbridge Wells, C&H have developed their business significantly since the early fabric shops started in 1933.
In the company’s own words: ‘Our trade is heavily labour intensive, and the strength of the Company lies in its staff; in their attitudes, specialist knowledge, and commitment. A retail company is judged daily by customers on how well every member, in every store, performs.’
C & H Fabrics
It is therefore important that the head office control systems for the ledgers and personnel records (with over 400 staff) are accurate, easy to administer and are able to provide management information quickly. Having used Retail Accounts for some time, it was decided to integrate the accounting function with the EPOS tills throughout the group early in 2009. One of the challenges is that C&H utilise outsourced labour at every branch for making up and finishing curtains, which needs to be handled through the Purchase Ledger.
Touchretail have incorporated this, along with the ability to match tills to cash taken and banking details, into their Retail Accounts Central Cash Office Module.
After the successful implementation of the Retail Accounts EPOS Integration at the Tunbridge Wells store, the module is now being rolled out at all C&H stores.
C&H stores typically offer curtains and blinds and accessories, furniture, upholstery and cushions, fabrics, knitting wools, sewing accessories, crafts and gifts – with most stores also offering their customers an excellent coffee shop, and of course there is the online store.
