The IT solutions provider for retailers is now aiming to appeal to small and medium-sized businesses, including ready-to-wear stores and other specialized businesses. To that effect, it has named Nicolas Segons to the newly created position of partner manager Europe for retail.

It’s a big step for the company, which was previously mainly addressed to banks and large retailers such as Carrefour, Système U, Auchan, Kingfisher, and Kiabi. Now, it’s aiming to attract pharmacies, ready-to-wear stores, restaurants, movie theaters and specialized businesses, according to the company. 

That’s where Nicolas Segons comes in, offering Windcor Nixdorf his experience in the field. Segon has previously worked for Motorola Solutions, Sonus Network and Spectra Physics.
