By: J2 Retail Systems Le Pain Quotidien is a chain of characterful, upmarket bakeries-cum- When Head of IT, Robert Brown, joined the business in Spring 2012, he saw that the current till provision – a mixture of cash registers and EPoS – was not serving the business. “The equipment was quite dated and very expensive, and we were not getting the support we needed,” he observes. Brown decided to source a contemporary EPoS solution. He comments: “Experience drew me towards a company I’d worked with in a previous position, whose reliability and technical performance I could trust and who I knew to be cost-effective. That company was J2 Retail Systems.” Continues Robert Brown: “I found plenty of case study material to prove J2’s general market prominence, not to mention its dominance in bakery retail. Also, as J2 operates across hospitality and food retailing, I knew all aspects of our business would be covered by a J2 EPoS solution.” Brown is now planning to roll out 100 J2 630 PC-based touchscreens to its London locations. “We shall start to phase in the J2s and move through our upgrade programme,” he adds. “The J2 630s are latest technology and offer the best value for money. We expect a range of benefits including improved system reliability, ease of use, speed of use, longevity and cost-effectiveness. Using J2s, our cost of EPoS ownership should definitely be reduced.” J2 RETAIL SYSTEMS www.j2retailsystems.com J2 Retail Systems is a specialist manufacturer of PC-based touchscreens, LCD touchscreen monitors and point-of-sale hardware to the retail, hospitality and leisure industries.
