DALLAS — June 2, 2009 — Retalix® (Nasdaq: RTLX), a leading provider of software solutions for retailers and distributors, today announced that K-VA-T Food Stores has selected Retalix Loyalty™ as its next-generation customer loyalty and promotions management system. The regional, family-owned supermarket chain operates more than 100 stores in Kentucky, Virginia and Tennessee under the Food City and Super Dollar banners.

Retalix Loyalty is a powerful, targeted promotions and consumer interaction solution that delivers offers, tracks performance, personalizes communications and protects profits. As an enterprise-wide, real-time, scalable system, Retalix Loyalty helps retailers grow sales profitably and build lifetime customers.
At Food City, Retalix Loyalty will be tightly integrated with the grocer's existing Retalix StoreLine point-of-sale (POS) and Retalix HQ price management system. The addition of Retalix Loyalty will provide an unprecedented ability to effectively manage pricing strategy, execute at the point-of service, and deliver customer-specific promotions, continuity and analysis in a comprehensive fashion.

"Our stores serve a growing population base of nearly 1 million households in a competitive market, so it's important to be able to quickly design and execute scalable and robust marketing and promotion campaigns," said Paul Widener, Vice President of Information Services at K-VA-T. "The Retalix Loyalty solution will enable us to do more creative and relevant communications and promotions in the store, at the fuel pumps and online."
