Canary IT expands its presence across the Pacific, supporting retailers and distributors with modern, cloud-based platforms tailored to regional needs. This is reflected in the successful LS Central SaaS implementation for the Ah Liki Group in Samoa, one of the country’s most prominent and influential business groups. 

The project saw LS Central Version 27 SaaS go live across Ah Liki Wholesale & Distribution, the Group’s largest division, marking a significant milestone in its digital and cloud transformation journey. The business transitioned from legacy, on-premise systems to a modern, fully cloud-based retail and distribution platform – delivered on time, on scope, and with strong adoption from day one. 

A fast, well-executed cloud transition 

The end-to-end deployment was completed in just three months, with all locations going live simultaneously last week. Despite the scale and complexity of the operation, management and frontline teams alike were pleasantly surprised by how intuitive and easy the new system was to adopt. 

This rapid uptake reinforced the importance of a well-planned LS Central SaaS implementation, supported by robust change management, clear communication, and close collaboration between business stakeholders and the delivery team. 

By moving to LS Central in a SaaS environment, Ah Liki Wholesale & Distribution is now positioned to benefit from: 

• Improved system reliability and performance 

• Centralised data and real-time visibility across operations 

• Reduced infrastructure overheads 

• A scalable platform that can grow with the business 

Strong collaboration behind the scenes 

Projects of this nature rely on strong teamwork and deep platform expertise. This successful LS Central SaaS implementation in Samoa was delivered through close collaboration between on-site and remote specialists. 

The teams combined effort ensured a smooth transition, minimal disruption to business operations, and a confident go-live experience for staff across all locations. 

Supporting digital transformation across the Pacific 

For Canary IT, this project highlights both the maturity of LS Central SaaS and the growing appetite across the Pacific region for secure, cloud-based retail and distribution platforms. 

Congratulations to the Ah Liki Group on this important milestone. We look forward to continuing to support the business as it builds on this foundation and unlocks further value from its cloud investment.
