Being a fast-food chain or having several fast-food chains, you have certain connotations that are attached to you. Most significantly, you need to be producing and delivering your food with the utmost speed to your customers.

In order to do so, you need to have systems in place that are flawless, with a ‘machine’ like process of order, making, packaging, and delivering in place.

For those reasons, the Electronic Point of Sale or EPOS system is the perfect fit for you, and we are going to tell you why.

Let’s take you through a few reasons why the EPOS system will make your fast-food chain faster than it already is.

Quick service & Takeaway POS System

Payments Received

When ordering from your fast-food chain, which payment options are customers most likely going to use, cash or card?

Exactly.

As a result, POS systems are attached to cash registers or cash drawers, activating them upon confirming the amount received from the customer.

On the other hand, card payments are becoming more and more popular, which has resulted in the development of point of sale systems, allowing credit card payment processing directly or from a 3rd party card reader.

Digital Slips Sent To The Kitchen

Are your cooks getting orders wrong because the cashiers are still having to send printed slips to the kitchen or having to shout out food orders? It’s time for a change.

With the 3S POS system, digital slips will be sent to the screen that will be set up in the kitchen. This allows the cooks to read all the incoming orders without the cashiers having to give them slips or shout out food orders.

Customer Relationship Management

Knowing your customer is an incredibly important aspect of building a successful business.

In the fast-food chains industry, customising orders to suit your customer before they have even finished choosing their full order goes a long way in developing a successful relationship that will result in loyalty.

What’s more? It’s integrated with telephone and an online ordering system that will result in streamlined takeaway orders.

As a result of its data capturing abilities, the system allows you to know who your customer is before you have even picked up the phone. Awesome right?

  • Ingredient Tracking: Every lettuce leaf, every sesame seed – your EPOS system tracks them all. With this level of detail, you can anticipate demand, prevent shortages, and ensure your kitchen is always ready to whip up your signature dishes.
  • Supplier Integration: Seamless collaboration with suppliers is a breeze with EPOS. Set up automatic reorders when your stock hits a designated threshold, ensuring you never run out of essential items at the wrong time.
  • Waste Reduction: Say goodbye to wasted ingredients and hello to optimised usage. By analysing sales data and consumption patterns, your EPOS system helps you minimise waste, trim costs, and boost your bottom line.
