The fast moving environment of the retail industry provides unique challenges for retailers and the supply chain. Whether the customer wishes to purchase through the internet or high street the growing expectation is to have access to products and services 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. In a similar vein the leisure industry is increasingly required to provide better access to services through a more responsive and competitively priced business model that is both attractive to the individual and family alike.
