VAUGHAN Ontario Priszm Limited Partnership, based here, a 484-unit Yum! Brands franchisee in Canada, has selected the MenuLink.NET back-office system from Radiant Systems Inc.
Under the agreement, Priszm and Alpharetta, Ga.-based Radiant will deploy MenuLink.NET to all Priszm company KFC, Long John Silver's, Pizza Hut and Taco Bell locations. According to Priszm chief financial officer Peter Walkey, "Leveraging the advanced capabilities of the MenuLink system and the expertise of Radiant's consulting team to guide the implementation, we anticipate meaningful reductions in our labor and food costs and significant improvements in our restaurants' operational efficiency."
MenuLink's labor management, food cost management and financial reporting capabilities are expected to help Priszm managers better align labor and inventory with forecasted customer demand, manage overtime expenses and recognize causes of food-cost variance, Radiant representatives said. The technology's centralized database and library of built-in reports will aid Priszm management in understanding and guiding restaurant performance on a store-level, regional or company-wide basis, they added.
