Mr.Pet's Story

About business

Greg Penno has started his pet supplies business, Mr. Pet’s, for 26 years. Mr. Pet’s has 9 locations in Canada with 8,000 product SKUs, but expanding to 25,000 SKUs over the next 12 months.

Greg aims to offer his customers a wider selection of pet products than ever before. But he has a big efficiency puzzle to solve, managing approximately 100 employees with 1,200–1,800 orders per day.

On his way to find a seamingly-simple POS solution

It’s not easy to manage 9 physical stores. Greg wants to offer different products at different store locations. Mr. Pet’s website also has lots of SKUs that need to be organized well for customers to understand what they have and where.

Greg and his developer team were looking for a POS system to maximize efficiency and provide their customers with the best experience. This POS system should allow back-orders and dropship to fulfill 5% of his sales orders.

As simple as it may seems, Greg Penno cannot find what he wants in any POS system. Unfortunately, his experience with some other POS system did not go well, even with a popular one like Microsoft Dynamics:

  • Delay in syncing data
  • Incorrect product information
  • Unable to meet the business’ special needs

“We have different products sometimes at different locations and we want to tell the world what products we have at each store simply so we had very special needs for magestore.”

Believing is achieving

Mr. Pet’s needs an integrated & Magento-native POS system that uses the same database for website as POS. Greg & his developer fellows didn’t give up on their research. Finally, Greg has found what he needs in Magestore POS. Running several cash registers at once, Greg was once worried about Magestore POS speed, but now everything is sorted out.

With his wise vision in Magestore POS, Greg has gained absolute trust from his staff members for being the No.1 boss.

I think they had some doubt at times, but I was able to show them I can lead them through a fire and we survive.”
