In the fast-paced world of retail, success doesn’t just depend on selling more, it depends on selling smarter. One of the most powerful ways to increase profitability is through inventory optimization. Rather than relying solely on high-level sales targets or historical performance, modern retailers have been and are continuing to embrace profit-first forecasting, a strategic approach that aligns inventory decisions with bottom-line results.  

The point of sale (POS) has long been a staple of retail operations, but in 2025, its role is being radically redefined. With the rise of mobile POS (mPOS) systems, the checkout experience is shifting from static counters to dynamic, customer-centric encounters that take place anywhere, on the sales floor, at curbside, or online. 

Retailers are embracing this transformation, recognizing that mPOS offers more than just transactional convenience. It’s a strategic enabler of personalization, agility, and operational efficiency.
