In just twelve years since being founded in 2001, Pazzion has established a far-reaching international presence with operations in Brunei, Cambodia, India, Indonesia, Japan, Mauritius, Sri Lanka, Thailand, Turkey and Vietnam. As the company grew, it took the decision to introduce an automated approach and set out to find a specialist retail solution that could support an increasingly diverse customer base, multiple languages as well as different countries and time zones. After evaluating several vendors, Pazzion selected Eurostop. According to the Merchandising Team at Pazzion, Eurostop matched the company’s requirements perfectly, providing a fully automated, highly intelligent system to facilitate stock control processes.

Eurostop captures accurate sales data which Pazzion can then translate into meaningful statistics that improve strategic decision-making and aid forward planning.
