Coda in key retail contract win

FINANCIAL software specialists CODA has won a contract with Mothercare to supply the retailer with its accounting software.

The Harrogate-based group's systems are already used at two subsidiaries within Mothercare but the group has now been chosen as the preferred supplier for group-wide accounting at the international high street retailer.

CODA's dedicated retail accounting system supports core accounting and procurement processes as well as specialist retail accounting and reporting requirements.

Mike Rainer, group financial controller at Mothercare, said: “We are confident that CODA's software will support our complex group structure. The CODA team worked closely with us to show how the core product functionality, along with its consolidation and reporting capabilities, would meet our critical business issues. CODA will link our merchandising and EPoS environments into our financial management systems helping us to automate further our accounting processes.”

CODA was founded in 1979 and employs more than 600 employees working at 18 offices in 14 countries.

The group is part of Unit 4 Agresso NV, which is headquartered in the Netherlands and listed on both the Dutch and Norwegian stock exchanges.
