Du Maurier History

DU MAURIER

International  Costumier  sets  the
stage  for  better  Customer  Service.

Providing a full range of costumes for the world of theatre and films, backed by a range of services covering costume creation, period detail, alterations, renovations and accessories together with a specialist designer service, Angels have become probably the best Costume House in the world.

With offices in London and Paris and employing over 200 staff they have supplied costumes to hundreds of films with twenty of these having won Oscars for Best Costumes Design. From the hire of a single chorus girl costume to clothing a cast of thousands, Angels have the answer. They have supplied

costumes for well known films such as The Great Gatsby (1974), Star Wars (1977), Death in the Nile (1978), Gandhi (1982) and many more.

Angels were looking for a solution to meet the demands of a very busy customer-focused service delivery business. They needed a retail

management system that would prove easy to use, keeping training costs lower, scaleable, fast to install minimising the disruption to their service delivery, powerful yet flexible to ensure they obtained the information needed to manage the business. It was important that they had visibility of the trading situation at all times.

Geoffrey Marx, Finance Director at Angels said “With strong customer relationships at the heart of our business, we needed a solution that would help us manage both the day to day transactions and to support us in developing those relationships.” Having reviewed several retail service solutions in the marketplace, Angels chose the StorePro^™ e-retail solution from Du Maurier.

StorePro operates in a browser environment providing access to information from any location. It also provides a fast, simple to use ePoS facility with in-store and head office communications, stock control, on-line credit card authorisation & cheque guarantee with links to TRANSAX. All this alongside full sales analysis and data transfer to host systems. The ePoS till operation is specially designed to minimise and simplify keystrokes. Included are comprehensive barcode scanning options.

“We needed an retail service solution which was reliable, fast and user-friendly. With the advanced technology provided by Du Maurier, we have just that.” Geoffrey Marx, Finance Director, Angels the Costumier.
