PMC – A shopping experience that works anywhere, anytime

Since 2001, Paul Mason Consulting (PMC) has provided trusted expertise for strategy development, technology transformation, and IT support to over 100 retail organizations around the world. When the British clothing retailer Crew Clothing had to reinvent its in-person shopping experience during COVID-19, PMC partnered with Couchbase on AWS to develop a fully mobile hand-held sales solution that provides full functionality anywhere on the shop floor or in remote pop-ups.
