24 Hour Fitness, a leading health club industry pioneer serving more than 4 million members in more than 450 fitness centers across the U.S., was in need of a merchandising, analytics and store platform that would support its expansion plans and allow quick and easy access to actionable data without IT engagement. 24 Hour Fitness selected Mi9 Retail's solution to increase efficiencies at the corporate office and in its clubs' retail operations, thanks to improved business intelligence capabilities. 24 Hour Fitness anticipates Mi9 Retail also will provide a fast ROI through robust integration with existing membership and corporate systems.
Built on a fully integrated platform, the Mi9 Retail Suite delivers a streamlined solution that combines advanced data management, business intelligence and financial controls designed to drive actionable analysis at every level of the enterprise. This solution will provide 24 Hour Fitness with one source of information to support buying, pricing, inventory management and inventory valuation, creating a fully aligned experience across all retail channels to satisfy member demand. Unparalleled views of the business will also be delivered – across merchandise categories, club locations, members, logistics, and finance and accounting – yielding 24 Hour Fitness much deeper and broader access to data than its legacy system. 24 Hour Fitness will be able to record every transaction at the detail level, making it easy to track understocks, overstocks and out-of-stocks, as well as provide extremely accurate margin calculations. In addition, the robust financial controls will allow 24 Hour Fitness to manage item profitability at a granular level by location and day, and automatically identify and correct any incorrect, missing, duplicate, erroneous or suspicious data or transactions.
"Thanks to the ease of implementation, advanced architecture and superior functionality, Mi9 Retail will be able to support the needs of our growing retail business in clubs and offer new opportunities for expanding ecommerce," said Andrew Dottermusch, Sr. Director, Retail at 24 Hour Fitness.
