I have that confidence in Aptos. We look forward to adopting these new innovations within the Liberty retail environment.\u201d<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u00a0<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">According to Zaki Hassan, Aptos General Manager for EMEA and APAC, the software firm has a deep appreciation for Liberty\u2019s rich heritage and uniqueness in the luxury retail sector.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u00a0<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cLiberty has one of the most sought-after retail flagships in the world,\u201d Hassan said. \u201cWalking into Liberty \u2013 with its recognisable Tudor exterior housing six floors of carefully curated merchandise \u2013 inspires awe.
