WHY ARE THE NATION'S
LEADING RETAILERS JOINING RETEX?


WHY JOIN?

FIND SOLUTIONS

Here's why.Retex is a multi-solution provider, not just a buying cooperative. The organization enables retailers to:

Leverage Buying Power. Retex's leveraged cooperative buying concept, coupled with the opportunity to spread costs across a wider base, provides enormous cost savings to members.

Lucrative Pricing. Retex negotiates volume-sensitive, highly discounted pricing for its members. Contracts often include 'most favored customer pricing' clauses.

Cash Rebates and Year-End Dividends. You receive cash rebates on many products and services and year-end profits are distributed back to the membership in the form of a dividend. Member companies have saved more than $100 Million through Retex monthly rebates and year-end dividends, over and above our solution providers' discounted invoices.

HOW DOES RETEX WORK?

Proactive Problem Identification & Resolution Support. You're not on your own to find or solve issues. Retex secures monthly reports and the right to audit books and records to assure members get correct monthly checks, discounts and prices.

Consulting Services. Retex's virtual resources can be put to work for your organization. Technical consulting services are also provided to assist your technology evaluation and business case development efforts. By participating in our turnkey programs, Retex can help supplement your ITS budget and augment your finite staffing resources.

Program Synergies. Retex product designs are shared-solutions. Since the consortium provides solution providers, as well as retail members, significant relationship benefits, Retex is able to negotiate program pricing agreements which either completely eliminate, or significantly reduce, the retailer's upfront capital investment costs to acquire, and/or operate, technology previously inaccessible or unaffordable to an individual retailer.
Joining Retex
Makes Great Business Sense

We're getting savings of about a quarter million dollars a year that I can attribute to Retex. It's like having an extended research arm. Keeping up with the latest technologies is always a challenge. In areas where Retex puts a program together, they're doing research and providing expertise that would be expensive and time consuming for member companies working alone. To some extent, we're leveling the playing field, but only in such a way that everybody gains. No one gains disproportionately because all of the programs are based on proportionality - the size of each retailer's discount is based on the volume they're bringing in.
