Schöneck, 24. October 2012 – The Saudi Arabian Al Muhaidib Group has signed a contract with SAP for the purchase of SAP Point-of-Sale by GK and SAP Offline Mobile Store by GK for use in its retail outlets for building materials and metals.
- SAP’s first sale of GK SOFTWARE AG solutions in the Arabian Peninsula
- New POS project for leading German specialist retail chain
GK SOFTWARE AG will handle the implementation of the new solution, which will be installed in approximately 180 branches in Saudi Arabia and the GCC countries (Bahrain, Kuwait, Oman, Qatar and the United Arab Emirates). For SAP, this deal marks its first customer for GK SOFTWARE AG solutions in a growth region outside of Europe, just six months after obtaining the rights to sell three of the company’s solutions in EMEA.
A second new project will involve the company supplying a new POS solution to Hammer Heimtex, Germany’s largest specialist retailer for home textiles with some 170 stores nationwide.
It has been agreed with the customers that details of the size of the projects will remain confidential.
