1000th EDGEPoS Installation: LA Foods

LA Foods, a family-run business founded in 1990, has grown significantly over the decades, now operating 13 stores across the region. The Uxbridge Road location stands out for its diverse demographic and innovative approach to retail. The business recently celebrated a major milestone, becoming the 1000th installation of EDGEPoS by Henderson Technology.

Co-owner Tabrez Hussain shares, “Our father started the business in 1990, and in the late 2000s, my brothers and I took over. Since then, we’ve expanded to 13 stores, each tailored to meet the needs of its local community.” LA Foods places a strong emphasis on aligning with consumer trends and high-demand products, ensuring a top-tier shopping experience.

EDGEPoS emerged as the clear choice for its robust features and potential to transform store management. “We wanted an IT system that could make our operations more efficient,” explains Tabrez. “Self-checkouts, automated ordering, and electronic shelf labels (ESELs) all stood out for us.”
