Iran is well-known for producing the finest leather in the world.

Thanks to its dedication to customer satisfaction and hard work, Mashhad Leather has now become one of the top leather providers in Iran. With 60 stores across the country, customers from any Iranian city can now easily access Mashhad Leather's high-quality products.

Challenges

In today's competitive market, retail companies must embrace system smartization to survive. The key to success lies in agility, not system largeness, and technology is the best way to improve systems. With 60 stores already in operation and more planned for the future, it's essential to have a smart system that can monitor and make informed decisions. This requires setting up KPIs to measure performance and using accurate inbound traffic data as a benchmark. Choosing the right people counting system is critical as an inefficient system will waste time and cost. Therefore, accuracy and technical support are essential parameters to consider when selecting a people counting system. By using a reliable system, retail companies can make data-driven decisions, streamline their operations, and stay ahead of the competition.
