Switching to iVend Retail gave Healthy U better control over inventory, improved reporting and increased year-over-year sales.

iVend Retail enables us to easily handle stock transfers, generate inventory reports that provide a more thorough view, and provide greater control over our daily operations, as well as the information we need to forecast more accurately. The installation was quick and easy thanks to the collaboration with Total Solutions, the implementation partner.
