Aetherix Digital is a retail technology company on a mission to bring Retail 4.0 to every retailer in Southeast Asia. We were founded by practitioners — people who have spent careers inside the largest retail technology organisations in the world and know exactly what the industry has been missing.
We don’t sell generic software and leave you to figure it out. We provide an end-to-end Cloud Software and IoT Platform, empowered by Artificial Intelligence — and we implement it, train your team, and stay with you as a true operating partner.
WHY AETHERIX EXISTS
Retail Has Changed. Most Technology Hasn’t.
Too many retailers are still operating with disconnected systems, delayed data, and limited visibility. Store managers make critical decisions without real-time insights. Long checkout queues drive lost sales. Valuable customer and operational data remains trapped in silos.
Global retail platforms weren’t built for the realities of Southeast Asia. They struggle with diverse payment ecosystems, fragmented retail landscapes, and the speed at which the region is evolving.
Aetherix Digital changes that.
Our unified retail platform combines Cloud POS, AI-powered self-checkout, real-time analytics, and customer loyalty into one intelligent ecosystem. Purpose-built for Southeast Asia, it can be deployed in as little as 30 days and typically delivers measurable returns within 12–18 months.
One Platform. Total Retail Intelligence.
Our Mission
“To empower retailers across Southeast Asia with one intelligent platform that connects operations, customers, and AI—helping every retailer operate smarter, grow faster, and compete with confidence.”
The Team
Built on Decades of Retail Experience. Driven by One Mission.
Bernard Grellier
CEO & Co-Founder
Ex-Diebold Nixdorf · Ex-NCR | MBA SUNY, USA · MSc IT CNAM, France
Bernard brings more than 16 years of leadership in retail technology across Asia, helping some of the world’s largest retailers accelerate their digital transformation. Having held senior roles with global leaders in point-of-sale and retail solutions, he has deep expertise spanning cloud platforms, omnichannel commerce, self-checkout, AI, and store operations.
He founded Aetherix Digital with a clear vision: to give retailers a modern, intelligent platform designed for the realities of Southeast Asia. Rather than adapting legacy systems built for other markets, Aetherix was created from the ground up as a cloud-native, AI-powered retail platform—enabling retailers to operate smarter, deliver exceptional customer experiences, and compete with confidence.
