Lincolnshire, IL –  October 03, 2006 – Junction Solutions, the largest provider of vertical industry focused enterprise software and services based on the Microsoft Dynamics™ AX (formerly Axapta) platform, today announced that Nautica Mexico has chosen JunctionMCR™, the multi-channel retail ERP solution built on Microsoft Dynamics™ AX, to manage its supply chain and retail distribution in Mexico. 

Nautica apparel is internationally known and sold in upscale retail stores such as Liverpool and El Palacio de Hierro in Mexico. Nautica Mexico is represented by Shavick S. A. de C. V., the exclusive Nautica apparel licensee representative in Mexico. 

Nautica Mexico selected Junction Solutions de Mexico and JunctionMCR™ to integrate its operations in Mexico after reviewing other business applications.  JunctionMCR™ was selected because it has the functionality and flexibility to meet the latest e-Commerce needs of the distribution and retail markets in Mexico. In addition, JunctionMCR™ provides a single view of the complete supply chain needs of Nautica in Mexico.

“We considered other products before choosing Junction Solutions. We chose JunctionMCR™ and its single Microsoft database platform because it supports our multi-currency transactions.
