WOW RTPRQ HUGE CEO ANNOUNCEMENT >>> A New Retail Pro for 2013
January 1, 2013
In a few hours news of the sale of Retail Pro International, LLC (RPI) will hit the business wires. I wanted you: our partners, customers, friends and family to hear from me first about the transaction and what it means to all of us.
The great success that RPI has enjoyed over the last 4 years has made the management team and me true believers in the potential for growth and excellence here. I believe in RPI so much that I have structured a Management Buyout of RPI from Laurus and Midsummer, the previous owners. Beginning January, 1 2013, the next phase of RPI starts with me maintaining my role as CEO and adding the new responsibility of Chairman of The Board and shareholder.
We will continue our core mission of maintaining strategic focus on creating the world's most agile retail technology and erasing operational borders for retailers everywhere, while fostering the global growth of retail. With this new ownership change, we can all depend on a longer term focus on the previously mentioned goals, enabling RPI to invest more time and money into product development and growth of our worldwide support footprint. RPI will not change its core competency or its worldwide go-to-market strategy, but we will become an even more nimble and flexible organization.
Thank you for being a part of the last four years as we have built upon the rich 25-year legacy of our brand and now as we look forward to a bright supportive future together.
Regards,
Kerry Lemos
Chief Executive Officer
Retail Pro International, LLC
