Myro: Stepping Up Multi-Outlet Efficiency with RetailLife
Synchronizing four city outlets into one connected, data-driven retail network with RetailLife
The Context: Myro Bangladesh
Myro is a contemporary footwear brand operating four high-traffic outlets across Dhaka, including key locations like Bashundhara City and Muktobangla. The brand focuses on blending modern design with traditional craftsmanship in its shoe collections.
The Pre-ERP Bottleneck
Before the implementation of RetailLife, Myro's rapid growth led to four critical operational gaps:
-
Inventory Disconnect
- Problem: Stock levels were managed locally at each of the four stores.
- Result: Blind spots regarding overall stock availability, leading to missed inter-store sales opportunities and frequent customer dissatisfaction when searching for specific sizes or colors.
-
Manual Reporting Burden
- Problem: Day-to-day sales, promotions, and end-of-day reports required labor-intensive data consolidation.
- Result: Store management spent valuable time on administrative tasks instead of engaging with customers and coaching staff.
-
Inconsistent Customer Journey
- Problem: Customer loyalty data and purchase history were isolated to the specific outlet where the sale occurred.
- Result: Inability to provide uniform service or manage a truly central loyalty program across all four locations.
-
Supply Chain Sluggishness
- Problem: Slow planning and tracking of replenishment stock from the warehouse.
- Result: Increased risk of inventory aging and prolonged stockouts for best-selling footwear styles.
