Woolworths

Woolworths was principally a UK retailer focused on the home, family and entertainment. Woolworths offered its customers value-for-money on an extended range of products. It was built around the well known Woolworths brand which was represented in towns and cities throughout the UK.

Woolworths Mainchain, which comprised 808 of the Group’s 911 retail stores, was a high street retailer for consumers’ everyday general shopping requirements. Its strategy was to tailor its product ranges and store sizes to meet the distinct market needs of customers in different locations.

“Overall DYNASTY offered superior integration potential supporting our existing hardware platforms and helping us to make the transition from mainframe ‘point solutions’ to a suite of business applications with a common look and feel and ease of use. It allows us to move forward a step at a time.”
