Summit C-Store©
cstore software Summit C-Store© is a powerful back-office solution for convenience stores. It offers strong integration for checkouts, operational simplicity, retail by department inventory and the ability to add pricebook and register interfaces at a later date as needed. It is totally integrated with Petrolac© and interfaces with a variety of POS registers, receipt printers & bar code scanners.

It also enables users to manage pricebooks, sales data, inventory, etc. and to produce dozens of customized reports such as PLU Movement, Retail Inventory, Pricebook Cost & Margin Exceptions, Buydowns/Rebates, Flash Profits, etc. Also, since cigarette and beer buyback programs demand close attention to get your rebates, Summit C-Store© tracks every pack and 6-pack so all your claims are accurate and timely. This system has reduced shrink by 2%-4% for some of our customers, so it is no wonder that it quickly pays for itself! Download sample c-store figures detailing a 1.5% shrink reduction totaling $2,000 in monthly savings!

We understand that rarely do all of your stores use the same type of register. And, not every owner has the luxury of purchasing new, matching registers for each store. Summit completely integrates with most types of registers so you don't have to buy new equipment to achieve control. You can even manually enter shift totals in stores where you have older registers. Summit C-Store© has fully integrated subsystems including Summit PriceBook© and dozens of interfaces! It can be run stand-alone or integrated with Petrolac© or Summit Ag Accounting©. It is a fully integrated solution and is capable of running on a variety of platforms. Learn about our leasing options. Download literature about Summit C-Store©. Can't open the file?
