About LS Retail
LS Central is the global POS and operations platform developed by LS Retail. It's built for mid-market and enterprise retail, restaurant, hotel, pharmacy, and gas station businesses running multiple locations, countries, or sales channels. It combines POS, inventory, pricing and promotions, loyalty, eCommerce, workforce management, analytics, and financial operations in one system, so teams work from the same data.
LS Central is ERP-agnostic. It integrates natively with Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central, and connects to SAP S/4HANA, Oracle, and Microsoft Dynamics through CentralConnect, LS Retail's own managed integration.
The modular design lets businesses adopt only the capabilities they need and expand over time, with global templates for consistent processes and local rules for taxation, pricing, and compliance.
AI-enhanced capabilities support demand forecasting, inventory optimization, promotion tracking, and operational reporting, with data synced in real time.
