A LS Retail Case Study
Gallo Clothing (Alko Distributors) is a family‑owned, Baltimore‑based national retailer of discount fashions founded in 1975 that has experienced rapid growth. The company relied on disparate, unreliable systems—Peachtree for accounting and a separate POS for registers—which culminated in a catastrophic POS failure on Christmas Eve that cost roughly $20,000 and exposed the need for a single, dependable management platform.
Gallo replaced both POS and back‑office systems with LS Nav, gaining near‑real‑time inventory and sales reporting, automated ticketing, centralized inventory control and faster store closings. The result was reduced shrinkage and manual work, shorter checkout lines, higher sales and record profits, lower holiday staffing costs, faster purchasing decisions and a strong ROI.
