GK delivers 8% of new installations in the global retail market. In terms of new POS software installations in the food retail sector, GK takes first place with 15% of installations worldwide, and has done so for the sixth year in a row. The firm analyzed the installation figures of more than 140 POS software providers in 48 countries. Only projects with more than 1,000 POS systems were taken into account.
GK's core markets are primarily Europe, where the company is the second-largest provider, accounting for 19% of all new POS software installations in the region, as well as the USA, where GK implemented a similar share in the food retail sector. However, strong growth in the Middle East and Africa region also contributed to GK's good performance. Here, GK achieved 50% of new installations, particularly through its South African customer Shoprite.
GK's results show that both new customer business and the expansion of systems for existing customers are progressing optimally and projects are being completed quickly. Michael Scheibner, CEO of GK Software: "In 2024, GK was able to roll out a large number of POS projects worldwide, e.g. with new customers, and grow in existing customer projects, thus further expanding its strong market position. I see our extensive customer pipeline for 2025 as an indicator of further sustainable growth."
