Online Pharmacy Increases Capacity to Meet Rising

Based in Covent Garden, The Garden Pharmacy started trading online with Actinic in 1999. Web sales account for 40% of its 3.5 million annual turnover, and have increased by 35% in the last year. The new system, based on the Multi-user Version of Actinic Business, will allow up to ten networked PCs to process online and offline orders simultaneously. The new system saves about four hours of work a day, i.e. about half a member of
staff.

MD Harry Ganz comments, “As well as enabling us to process multiple orders simultaneously, the software supports barcoding for data transfer between applications, and also allows us to combine multiple steps into a single-click procedure. It is a perfect fit for our requirements.”

Phil Rothwell, MD of Actinic, adds, “Actinic Business Multi User Version was designed to meet the needs of small to medium multi-channel businesses with large order volumes and so we are delighted with all the positive feedback we’ve received. Furthermore, it also seems that the starting price of 2000 (which includes installation), is extremely affordable.”
