New Point Of Sale Technology Helps Control Beverage Loss

Dec. 9, 2008 - PRLog -- Venue owners can identify where and when wastage and slippage occurs and get up to the minute visibility of beverage inventory and stock movement.


The wireless pourers are rechargeable electronic devices that can be calibrated to pour a nip, thirty mil, half a nip or 15 ml from the bottle. Each time a spirit is poured the device sends a signal to the point of sale system, reducing stock levels accordingly.

Bulk beverages like draft beer accounts for about 85% of sales. Difficult to stock take and monitor in real time, loss and wastage can be high. Vectron's bulk beverage metering devices deliver similar variance analysis and can help reduce beer loss from 25% (industry average) to 5%.

Seamless integration to existing point of sale system gives comprehensive variance reporting. With SMS or email messaging to your PDA, mobile phone or PC, automated alerts can be at store, regional, & corporate levels. Easy at a glance reports can show poured vs. sold drinks plus brand performance. Reports can be drilled down to a 10 second period and easily exported to excel.

Both of these new point of sale technologies can help Venue owners ensure profitable bar operation, control spillage and free drinks.  Vectron are a supplier of choice to some of Australia’s best known restaurants, hotels & pubs.  You can contact Vectron at sales@vectron.com.au or call on 0061 3 9328 8222
