With Store-in-a-Box, NEC and SYNNEX have put together a solution that includes a VP5 POS that comes pre-loaded with Bepoz software to make setup, installation and configuration easy for SMB retailers. This compact system includes several features typically available on higher-priced POS solutions, including an Intel Celeron Quad Core CPU, a stylish bezel-free monitor, three versatile mounting options to fit various types of store operations and coming equipped with Embedded POSReady 7. The easy-to-maintain VP5 POS uses a fan-less design, which delivers quiet operations and reduces costs and failures. The Store-in-a-Box solution is reportedly ideal for retail, hospitality, and quick-serve and full service restaurants.

Bepoz software solutions have been designed for the hospitality and retail industries, and are well suited for SMBs. With more than 5,500 installations worldwide, Bepoz software includes an intuitive customizable user interface, comprehensive analytics and an easy room charge process for restaurants and hotels.

“NEC is pleased to offer a POS system that incorporates NEC’s well-known, high-quality technology at a very competitive price point,” said Matt Worley, vice-president retail solutions for NEC Corporation of America.

Tim Flachman, COO, for Bepoz America, LLC, says, “Combining the power of Bepoz POS software with NEC retail hardware through SYNNEX Corporation is a win-win solution that is sure to be a hit with SMB retailers.”

The Store-in-a-Box solution will be available for purchase from SYNNEX Corporation, distributor of IT products and services, in the fall of 2015.
