Hyundai Department Store offers a sophisticated, high-end shopping experience to consumers in South Korea. The company's new wireless point-of-sale (POS) application embeds SQL Anywhere and enables sales clerks to process a purchase from anywhere in the store using a handheld device. As a result, shoppers no longer have to wait in long lines at cash registers and tend to shop longer at the stores, often purchasing more products and services. In addition, Hyundai has realized a 40 percent reduction in total POS hardware costs and a 30 percent reduction in administrative costs through improved tracking of sales and more efficient deployment of store personnel.
