Skechers taps Aptos to update POS

Global footwear retailer, Skechers, is deploying Aptos, Inc. technology for point of sale and sales audits via the Aptos ONE software-as-a-service platform.

The effort is aimed at modernizing the retailer's technology footprint, according to a press release, and adopting more modern, omnichannel-native solutions.

"Skechers is an authentic lifestyle brand that resonates with consumers around the world — and Aptos' decades of expertise supporting industry-leading footwear retailers make us an ideal catalyst for its growth," said Noel Goggin, Aptos CEO and culture leader, in the release.

"We were impressed with Aptos' ability to implement software on a global stage with a single master configuration, solutions that are proven at scale and functionally robust, and their investments in innovation, including modern, API-driven architecture," said Chris Coye, senior vice president of information technology at Skechers, in the release. "We believe Aptos is the right technology partner to support us as we improve the infrastructure and efficiency of our direct-to-consumer operations."

The technology will give Skechers a single view of customers, products and orders to enable seamless experiences across channels and empower its workforce to provide informed customer service, faster checkouts and individualized customer engagement.
