Abstract:
Systems and methods are provided for requesting a product at a retail establishment. The system includes an electronic device and a computer-readable storage medium which includes one or more programming instructions that cause the electronic device to receive, from an on-premises electronic device located at a retail establishment, data pertaining to a product including a unique identifier associated with the product, determine whether the product is an item of footwear, and identify current inventory information associated with the product in response to determining that the product is an item of footwear. The one or more programming instructions further cause the electronic device to send at least a portion of the current inventory information to the on-premises electronic device, receive a request for the product, and send a notification of the request to one or more associate electronic devices, each being associated with an associate in the retail establishment.
