iVend Retail Customer Success Story

Oscar Jacobson

Established in 1887 in New York, Capezio is the leading manufacturer and retailer of dance shoes and apparel.

The brand of choice for athletes and performers worldwide, Capezio has operated in Australia since 2007 and now has stores – in Mornington, Victoria and Elsternwick, Melbourne. When Capezio made the decision to migrate to iVend Retail, they simultaneously migrated their ERP to Sage 300cloud. The company felt iVend POS was the best candidate for their requirements, because of its seamless integration with Sage 300cloud and the support seemed strong.

Iconic Dance Brand Capezio Boosts Operational Efficiency at Stores and Head Office with iVend Retail and Sage 300cloud

The biggest benefit of iVend Retail is that we can now connect each of our stores and warehouse. We can now easily access consolidated customer data. And the iVend Retail team has been really keen to offer the tech support we need.
