of iScala to support
business growth in Africa
Epicor Software Corporation, a global
provider of industry-specific enterprise
software to promote business growth
has announced the general availability
of its enterprise resource planning (ERP)
solution, Epicor iScala.
Designed specifically to support small
to medium mid-market companies and
subsidiaries of larger multi-nationals
located in Europe, Middle East, Africa and
Asia, the latest version of iScala features
a brand new user interface in addition to
new functionality that help companies
drive cost efficiencies, take advantage
of new global growth opportunities and
protect the business.
Many small to medium mid-market
companies today have resource
constraints and limited budgets, but
still need a robust, feature-rich, and
flexible enterprise-class solution that will

underpin the business and help drive
growth. These companies need proven,
simple, expandable, and secure solutions
that can help them grow by reaching
more customers, expanding their product
and service portfolio, or expanding into
new geographies.
“Economic volatility, changing regulations
and digital disruption necessitate astute
business decisions. Every company,
regardless of size or location, needs to
continually transform its operations to
increase productivity and profitability to
stay competitive,” said Robert Sinfield,
Director, Product Marketing, Epicor
Software. “iScala is unique in that it
delivers one global product set, with
support for 36 languages, dedicated
multi-national resources, as well as
extensive compliance and governance
support. This makes global and regional
business easy. It helps customers realise
cost efficiencies up and down the supply
chain, it opens new opportunities for
growth, and it helps them protect their
business in a risk-filled economy.”
In use globally for over 20 years, iScala
continues to deliver great benefits to
customers. Tata Global Beverages Polska Sp
Zoo, a subsidiary of Tata Global Beverages
Limited that markets Tetley, Vitax, and
Flosana tea products as well as syrups
under the Vitax brand, is one example.
According to the company’s IT Manager
Robert Hipp the retail environment
has seen a great deal of change and
consolidation over the past decade. “Each
year, as new players enter the field, iScala
has enabled us to carefully track, analyse,
and strategically predict customer buying
habits,” says Hipp. “As a result, we’ve been
able to stay in front of the competition
through promotions and tactics that
strategically leverage the shelf and sales
value of our quality, world-renown brands.”
Hipp concluded, “Our company is well
positioned for future growth and taking
advantage of new opportunities through
our modern trade expertise and ongoing
investment in technological enhancements
at every state of operation.”
