PriceSmart is the largest operator of membership warehouse clubs in Central America, the Caribbean, and Colombia, with over 50 clubs located across 12 countries and a U.S. territory. Adopting Toshiba's ELERA® Commerce Platform enables PriceSmart to transform the front-end experience for its employees and members.

"PriceSmart selected Toshiba as a strategic partner due to the modularity and capabilities of its technology stack along with their commitment to work collaboratively with us to deliver cost-effective, innovative solutions. By teaming with Toshiba, we have the freedom to adapt our technology as our business grows and changes," said Wayne Sadin, Executive Vice President and CIO at PriceSmart.

Successfully implementing complex solutions for multinational retailers takes a team beyond a two-way partnership. A growing network of industry-leading partners enables retailers like PriceSmart to deploy tailored solutions.

“The flexibility that the network of ELERA® partners in the Commerce Marketplace brings to retailers is a game-changer. It means we can fully leverage our platform investments to stay agile and select partner solutions that best align with our goals,” Sadin continued.

The Toshiba Commerce Marketplace launches with a robust lineup of partners and will continue to cultivate recognized industry leaders to bring expertise and innovative technologies ensuring retailers have the tools to succeed in a competitive landscape.
