News Release:
Management One Ltd. and FAVES announce partnership and integration to help independent retailers manage their buying more profitably
Leader in merchandise intelligence and planning, partners with premier visual curation tool for retail buyers.
February 14th, 2022
Management One Ltd and FAVES Solutions, Inc. today announced the launch of a technical and business partnership to better serve their shared customer base in independent retail. Starting in Q2 2022, all FAVES customers who are also Management One Ltd customers will be able to view their open-to-buy budgets generated by Management One’s leading inventory planning service, directly in the FAVES Pro app. The first three pilot customers are already successfully using the integration. The incorporation of Management One OTB budgets into the FAVES Pro app will help customers of both companies manage their buying activities more efficiently, more accurately, and more profitably.
Ulla Hald, CEO of FAVES, said, “We are delighted to extend our partnership with Management One by bringing their powerful open-to-buy budget planning to FAVES Pro. With this seamless integration, our mutual customers will always have up-to-date budgets in the palm of their hand.”
Mike Alic, President of Management One, added, “Management One provides the premier tools for retailers to monitor their merchandise metrics, forecast their sales, and plan their open-to-buy. FAVES Pro, as a convenient visual tool that helps retailers make and review their buys intelligently when visiting trade shows or buying online, is a great complement to Management One, and many retail business owners have asked for a partnership and integration. In fact, some joint customers have already configured their FAVES Pro app to work with their Management One plans on their own. We have found that FAVES shares Management One’s commitment to the success of independent retailers, and our values. We’re delighted by the partnership.”
