If you ever find yourself in Taipei, Taiwan, you’ll see a rather famous chain of dessert and drink style restaurants known as Meet Fresh. And now they have found their way across the Pacific Ocean in sunny Irvine, CA. Meet Fresh faced many challenges in opening a branch in the Diamond Jamboree Plaza, and one of those challenges was to find the optimal POS solution for a growing, popular business.

Who is Meet Fresh?

If you visit Taipei, you will see these stores very often. A popular dessert and drinks shop, specializing in fresh (obviously) made desserts with a peculiar Asian flavor. They have been around a while and with the significant portion of the population in Irvine, CA being Taiwanese, they knew they had demand. Meet Fresh brought that familiar Taiwanese style shaved ice with various chewy and saucy ingredients such as taro or yam balls, soft peanuts, red beans, various types of jelly (similar to Jello), and many more. Demand for such treats is very high, and as already proven…customers show up and the lines are often out the door.

The Challenge

Knowing they would inevitably see long lines of hungry customers, Meet Fresh knew they needed a system that was not only reliable and efficient to handle the line of hungry patrons, but they really needed one to match the environment. Meet Fresh has a somewhat dark palette of colors for their image, and as such, they needed a POS solution to fit into that environment. They wanted it to be stylish; something that looked like it belongs there. They didn’t want a large system that invariably looked like a computer sitting there… it needed to be attractive. Additionally, they needed the peace of mind that they would not be calling servicemen out to repair it… downtime is income lost, and their system needed to not only be high performing and capable of running robust software, but also dependable and reliable enough that they knew it would respond immediately to commands, it wouldn’t freeze up, and it would optimize the order entry process.

The Solution

Meet Fresh chose the VariPOS 715 with a black on black color scheme for the frame and the cover. They also enjoy the option of changing the cover to a new color if they decide to give their POS image a facelift. The extraordinarily sturdy die-cast aluminum frame is not only stylish, but is also very effective at heat elimination and provides exceptional protection for the inner components. Effective heat elimination results in better performance, and consequently, peace of mind in knowing that their POS system is reliable.

VariPOS 715 also features a zero-bezel True-Flat Capacitive Touch screen with IP 66 Waterproof Certification. Meet Fresh doesn’t need to worry about making input errors with exceptional response and high accuracy to the touch. IP66 certification guarantees that the system will remain unaffected by liquids, and also allows for easy cleaning and in-house maintenance.

We are proud of Meet Fresh making the leap into the USA. It is our understanding it was a project two years in the making, and now they have brought their popular Asian desserts to the US population. Congratulations Meet Fresh!

At the end of 2015, Germany has announced of the tax changes and new regulations in the field of digital operation and introduced at 2017.01.01. In addition, Kamps Bakery considered that the customer should not adjust to checkout, but the checkout service must correspond to customers. Both of the statements were the reasons that Kamps Bakery decided to reload the POS solution.

The Challenge

It was a major & remarkable replacement project, since Kamps GmbH operates as franchising store, and owns 390 branches in Germany. They preferred Poindus VariPOS 310 and attach Poindus M354NC as 2nd display.

Who is Half and Half Tea Express?

In 2008, Half and Half Tea Express had a dream of bringing authentic Taiwanese style specialty drinks and snacks to the good people of Los Angeles, CA. Six years later, that dream has been realized and has even expanded into six different locations. Half and Half has rapidly become a favorite for those looking to enjoy an authentic Taiwanese beverage.

Half and Half Tea Express was recently recognized as one of the Top 5 Boba Tea establishments in the region. Given the sheer amount of competition in this locale, this is no small feat. As a result of this popularity, Half and Half took a long hard look at how they could improve their store’s customer service; increasing their efficiency, while maintaining the high quality they have always offered.

Their Challenge

Half and Half was not surprised at how popular they had become, but they knew it was time to find more ways to improve their business. As their popularity increased, lines were getting longer. They needed to approach this with care, because quality is Number 1 in their view and it is not negotiable. In addition to improving customer service, Half and Half wanted to make sure whatever decision they made, that it would fit in with their image.

After weighing their options they settled on trying an updated POS system. They needed a POS system that would not only provide the efficiency and reliability they needed to shorten those lines, but would also match their shop’s atmosphere. They spoke with a POS professional and after testing the waters, they made their decision.

The Solution

After facing several options, Half and Half chose the VariPOS 715. They found the reliability of the VariPOS to exceed their expectation; executing commands immediately and accurately. They found that the installed POS software reacted flawlessly. “Ghost Finger” mistakes decreased. And best of all, order entry times were only a fraction of what they were previously. Regarding performance, Half and Half was already impressed.The True-Flat Capacitive Technology touch screen allows for accurate entry and reduces “ghost-finger” mistakes (when your finger is hovering above the screen, but not actually touching it, and still executes a command).

Additionally, Half and Half chose a black on black color scheme for their frame and I/O covers. They felt this color provided the right amount of style and balance to the environment. VariPOS 715 became the obvious solution to Half and Half’s dilemma. Through a combination of high performance, efficiency and style, this unit was able to address the challenges they faced. Half and Half now enjoys the same popularity, the same quantity of patrons, but now with improved customer service, more accurate results, and shorter wait times.

In Taipei, Taiwan, there are many such establishments, and each one has a fantastic eye for detail. However, at present… one tea house stands out: HuiLiu Tea House (AKA: HuiLiu Japanese Style Tea Artistry).

HuiLIu is a celebrated, popular Japanese style tea house with a long history of excellence on the equally as famous Yong Kang Street (located in the Daan district of Taipei). Refined traditional décor including paper lamps, excellent (vegetarian) food & drink, a storefront reminiscent of an urban garden, and of course, the abundance of handmade ceramic art lining the walls are what really set HuiLiu apart. HuiLiu sees a steady stream of patrons throughout the day, for both their artwork and their cuisine.

“This will let everyone know that we are capable of modern technology, but the atmosphere hasn’t changed. We still have the best choice in teas, vegetarian fare, and our environment shows that.”

— Mr. Lin, Owner, HuiLiu Tea House

What Was the Challenge?

HuiLiu was facing the challenge of maintaining an accurate inventory before they decided to upgrade their existing POS system. Previously, HuiLiu found that a simple machine was all they needed to checkout their customers, but as times evolved and workloads grew larger, they knew the best option was to have a machine do some of the work. From inventory maintenance, accounting, and even special software for previewing custom made ceramic artwork, HuiLiu opted for the VariPOS on a recommendation from a friend, who just happened to be a POS dealer and an expert in the field.

In addition to the effortless automated processes, VariPOS provides a wide range of benefits to HuiLiu. Not only is the touch screen fully capable of such tasks as order entry, but it is capable of such tasks as word processing. HuiLiu found that a keyboard would be more efficient for such activities, among other possibilities. Additionally, a receipt printer would be needed, as well as a standard cash drawer.

How Did This Benefit HuiLiu?

Given the theme of the restaurant (a black and brown, traditional, old-fashioned teahouse), HuiLiu knew that a machine as advanced and modern as VariPOS would be obvious in such an environment. So instead of scrambling to find the “best” way of trying to hide their modern POS technology, they embraced it, opting for a silver-gray base and red I/O covers. “This will let everyone know that we are capable of modern technology, but the atmosphere hasn’t changed. We still have the best choice in teas, vegetarian fare, and our environment shows that.”

With VariPOS 715 running the ship for their accounting and inventory accuracy, HuiLiu can now focus on their passion: providing us with excellent teas, and especially… the beautiful ceramic artwork that has become a local sensation. Their business has become efficient enough to devote their extra time to producing fine pieces.
