    St. Claudius Beer Festival<\/strong> (Prov. Macerata) is a well-known and well-attended event, drawing thousands of people each year and engaging more than 120 volunteers in its organization.
    \nLabware has been a partner of the Beer Festival for years, and this year, given the success of the event, we were immediately available to listen to the needs of the organizers and bring our expertise to make everyone's work as smooth as possible with the ultimate goal of increasing orders and simplifying the customer shopping experience.<\/p>\n

    Key points of the installation were:<\/strong><\/span><\/h4>\n
      \n
    • QR CODE FOR ORDER AND PAYMENT AT THE TABLE:<\/strong><\/span> a QR code printed at the table allowed immediate browsing of the menu, ordering and payment at the table by credit card, Apple Pay or Google Pay. A cash payment option was also left, in which case an operator would reach the table after receiving the order at the cash register.<\/li>\n
    • TO FINALLY SAY GOODBYE TO CHECKOUT LINES: <\/strong><\/span>Total elimination of queues at the checkout to place the order and pay for it. The ordering and payment phase was handled by the customer from the comfort of the table, while the organization handled the delivery of food and drinks.<\/li>\n
    • KITCHEN ORDER DISPLAY:<\/strong><\/span> Two Kitchen Displays in the kitchen to monitor the flow of incoming orders. For simplicity, the two kitchen displays displayed entrees (along with side dishes) and seconds separately. This mode allowed for better time management in the kitchen, respecting the order of arrival of orders, with the ability to control workloads at different stations.<\/li>\n
    • MANAGEMENT OF INCOMING ORDERS:<\/strong><\/span> Clear separation of bar and kitchen. Separate management of the two areas ensured fewer waits, fewer errors, and more orders due to adherence to appropriate service times.<\/li>\n
    • INCREASE THE NUMBER OF ORDERS<\/strong>:<\/span> Increased table rotation due to speed of order, payment and order delivery<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

        Ivan Bartolucci<\/strong>,<\/span> PRotor and Organizer of the Beer Festival<\/em>, said, \u201cAt the 32nd St. Claudius Beer Festival, the organization chose to rely on Labware to improve order flow management. Our primary goal was to provide the best possible customer experience by giving customers the ability to order and pay conveniently from the table by simply scanning a QR code.
        \nAfter the first few days, in which, surprised by the huge volume of orders arriving at the same time, it was necessary to refine the management of orders and kitchens, everything went smoothly. Also confirmed by the excellent reviews left by customers. We were supported by Labware staff who proved to be qualified and helpful. For the next edition, the goal is to improve even more and accommodate the needs of the Festival, which grow and change from year to year. Labware has already made itself available, and we look forward to collaborating together again. Thanks go to the entire Labware team for understanding and accommodating our requests. See you next year!\u201d<\/p>\n

        Joseph Guerrieri<\/strong>,<\/span> Customer Service Manager Labware<\/em>, said, \u201cWe are very happy to have been chosen again for this edition as the technology partner of the St. Claudius Beer Festival. It was 5 intense days of work, a success with thousands of people attending and an average of almost 900 orders per evening handled. The greatest satisfaction was experiencing firsthand the positive impact of the introduction of online ordering and payment. It was appreciated by customers, eliminated queues at the checkout and improved the speed of service, resulting in more orders than in previous editions.\u201d<\/p>\n
