Customer testimonial
"It was important and clear to us from the outset that we wanted to design and run "Ds Milchhüsli" as professionally and modernly, yet as personally and closely as possible. The Arcavis POS system, with its many facets and ease of use, is just right for us. Thanks to the Arcavis app, we can check the current cash register status at any time and know at a glance what needs to be replenished in the farm store based on the sales displayed."
The Milchhüsli, Cornelia Zehnder, owner and managing director
