iVend Retail Customer Success Story IHNSA

Oscar Jacobson

Supplies and Tools of North (IHNSA) was founded in 1998 with its headquarters in Cuauhtemoc City, Chihuahua, North of Mexico. The company sells hand-held machine tools, industrial tools like welding machines, and is also invested significantly in the metal engineering industry. Another arm of the company has its focus on agricultural supplies and instruments. IHNSA also supplies input material to the automotive industries in northern Mexico.

IHNSA currently has a head office and four branches; three of them located in Chihuahua and one in Durango. The opening of the latest branch has been one of the most important achievements of the Company. Over time IHNSA has involved itself deeply in innovation and better offerings to their current customers, thereby differentiating itself from the competition.

In the beginning, the company used Microsip to streamline its operational processes. Then, IHNSA migrated to Eviciti POS for a year and a half.

Another of the most important achievements has been the implementation of iVend Retail at their stores. With iVend’s new and empowered business plans, report generation, data collation synchronisation and Analytics, the company is ready to use near real-time processing to its fullest advantage.
