Retailers’ Feedback from the 2021 Celerant Virtual Client Conference:
“We have been a Celerant client for 6 years. The conference is a great way to learn more about the software, and meet other retailers using the system. As a client of Management ONE, we’re glad to see them partner with Celerant; they’ve helped us control inventory turns and stock levels, and push gross margins to record levels, even during COVID-19”
- Jennifer Downey – President – Ambiance
“We were able to get a lot of our staff engaged; and there was a lot of value with the keynote speakers and one-on-one interactions with Celerant’s staff. It was a very productive experience. Thank you for getting creative, and putting all that together.”
