10-12-08 Realpubs choose Zonal's Aztec EPoS and Business Management Solution to support their expansion plans

Realpubs, a London-based pub company, have selected Zonal’s Aztec EPoS and business management solution to control their expanding managed pub estate.

The Aztec solution includes Point of Sale software running on Zonal’s latest hardware platform, and site back office and head office management applications with powerful multi-site reporting tools.  Proven by more than 1,300 installations, Aztec has been implemented by a number of major pub companies including JD Wetherspoon and Fuller’s.

 

Realpubs, multiple winner of the MA-100 Awards 2008, is a leader among the emerging group of independent pub operators in the UK and their excellent track record of its expanding estate of ten pubs keeps attracting further capital investments. 

Realpubs directors Nick Pring and Malcolm Heap, who managed the selection process, chose the Zonal solution for its reliability, ease-of-use and ability to manage their entire estate remotely from the company’s head office.  In addition, Zonal’s proven expertise in delivering tailored products and comprehensive service offerings to the pub sector has been an important factor in their decision-making process.

“The vast majority of our expansion has been achieved through judicious control of cash flow”, Realpubs Director Nick Pring stated.  “Implementing Zonal’s end-to-end solution increases our control both at the site and the head office and thus forms an important part of our growth plans.”
“Our aim is to provide a home from home for those living in the capital. A place to enjoy all the things that are great about a real pub – the conversation, the food and drink and above all the atmosphere.  Superior customer service is therefore key to our success and Zonal solutions can help us with that”, added Nick.

As part of the first phase of the implementation project the Aztec solution has now been installed into the Queen Adelaide, Prince Bonaparte and Coleherne Arms, Realpubs’ latest acquisitions.

 

Zonal’s Sales & Marketing Director Martina Baletkova said “We are very pleased Realpubs have implemented our Aztec solution and we look forward to supporting their growing business in the years to come.  Building on the success of our projects with number of major pub companies we are very excited about providing all the benefits of our products and services to independent operators like Realpubs”, Baletkova added.
