Brightpearl launches £1,000,000 fund to support independent retailers

Cloud-based commerce management software specialists boost business for retailers

Brightpearl, the world’s leading vendor of cloud-based commerce management software for small businesses, is today launching a stimulus fund of £1,000,000 to mark Independent Retailer Month in the US and UK.

Independent Retailer Month is a global campaign that will run throughout July. It aims to highlight the important role smaller, local, independent retailers play in the communities they serve, the local economy they contribute to, and in the retail sector as a whole.

“We’re keen to show our support for those retailers who are looking not just for better ways to manage their current business, but for ways to drive future growth as well,” says Salman Malik, CEO, Brightpearl. “The stimulus package will be distributed in the form of awards, each worth up to £600 / $1,000, to enable small retailers to invest in growth by implementing Brightpearl.”

Brightpearl’s easy-to-use web-based business management platform provides smaller retailers with the benefits of powerful integrated business software previously only available to larger companies. Brightpearl eliminates the pain of transferring data between multiple disparate applications and gives business owners real-time visibility of performance and customer data across every department and every sales channel, whether online or offline.

“At Brightpearl we believe every business, no matter how small, has the potential to be one of tomorrow’s national and even global success stories. We believe high-quality systems are essential to enabling that growth. Hopefully, with the help of this stimulus fund, we’ll be able to help a few realise their ambitions” concludes Salman.
