Retail Reload

What Retail Reload does

Retail Reload is a privately held French SaaS company that provides RFID-based real-time unified omnichannel inventory management software for retailers, with a stated focus on high-end and luxury brands. Founded in 2011 (firmographic data) and headquartered in Boulogne-Billancourt, France, the company operates with a small team of approximately 12 people under CEO and founder Yves Curtat and CTO Frédéric Garzon. Its platform is hardware-agnostic, designed to work with any RFID tags, antennas or networks, and integrates with enterprise systems (SAP, OMS, ERP, WMS, BI, CRM, POS) through standard APIs, enabling item-level inventory tracking with claimed 99% accuracy across in-store, warehouse and e-commerce channels.

The product portfolio is delivered as a three-stage SaaS deployment (Pilot, Smart Store, Unified Omnichannel) and includes in-store inventory management, distribution center management, an analytics dashboard, click & collect, in-store order fulfillment, self-service kiosk, intelligent fitting room, frictionless checkout, real-time replenishment, item-level receiving, and RFID anti-theft. Pilots are advertised as live in under four months with ROI proven in 5-7 months and all-inclusive pricing under $100K, supported by Pricer Simulation and ROI Simulation services for prospects. Distribution combines direct enterprise sales with a tiered partner network: hardware vendors (Zebra, Impinj, Nedap, Nordic ID, Checkpoint), system integrators (Deloitte), software ecosystem (SAP, SAP.iO), and field services (Hub One, Velociti).

Retail Reload's commercial model is subscription SaaS with multi-year contracts, complemented by facilitated hardware procurement through partners for end-to-end deals. Named customers include Lacoste (luxury apparel), ETAM (580 stores), Jennyfer (400 stores), Undiz (180 stores) and Lunettes Pour Tous (50 stores), representing 1,210+ deployed stores. The company is founder-owned, with no disclosed external funding beyond a 2019 SAP.iO non-dilutive program entry, and is pursuing US market expansion evidenced by its NRF Big Show 2025 presence (Booth #6719) and a stated US regional office.
