Designed to be a white label solution that encompasses different functionalities such as the customer virtual card, the order & pick up and the possibility to order at the table, the TCPOS App was born thanks to the close collaboration among three companies belonging to Zucchetti Group.

TCPOS, Zucchetti’s POS specialists, Ovosodo, the Como-based web agency and KonaKart, the developers of eCommerce platforms, joined forces to conceive and create a product designed, at the moment, for the hospitality sector. The goal is to provide customers with a tool that guarantees engaging and simplified shopping experiences.

Given the importance of the project, different team members from TCPOS are collaborating to an app highly requested by the market, with its first release planned for January 2019.

The first part of the project has been developed by TCPOS headquarter in Manno to then involve the colleagues of the Austrian office, already responsible for the creation of an excellent prototype.

This operation is part of a bigger evolution of the TCPOS suite, that will include solutions oriented to different eCommerce aspects, destined to be more and more present in the life of final users.

This evolution will include both the app’s design and an important update of TCPOS portfolio’s products, like for example, the Order & Delivery online booking solution. Soon, it will also be able to accept prepaid cards, widening the application of the app to the business catering sector too, including the card’s dematerialization, integrated in the app itself.

The app, that will be available both for iOS and Android, will include many features, among which promotion management, allergens notifications, integration with social media and management of customer feedback. By collaborating day by day with KonaKart and Ovosodo’s colleagues, TCPOS will be able to provide clients with an ecosystem made of solutions that, by respecting TCPOS’s usability and flexibility standards, will offer an excellent product characterized by a high-level user experience, easily customizable by the client according to its company’s corporate image and business needs.

This collaboration has been completely inedited for Zucchetti Group and has showed the effectiveness of the iCore strategy. A strategy that presents itself on the market for the first time and that puts the POS system at the centre of a wider galaxy of solutions aimed at simplifying sales processes in restaurants and stores, at the same time guaranteeing an optimal organization of workflows and personnel management.

Zucchetti präsentiert auf der EuroCIS 2019 in Düsseldorf auf dem gemeinsamen Messestand die Lösung iCore, die vom Kernstück – dem Point-of-Sale – ausgehend, die gesamte Retail-IT mit mobilen und stationären Lösungen wie Kiosken, Self-Checkouts, ERP, HR, und Zutrittssystemen, integriert.

Der TCPOS iCore ist der Kern, von dem aus Einzelhändler kundenorientiert wachsen können. Als Point-of-Sale ist dieser Nucleus der Taktgeber für die Retail-IT. Das Ziel: Die Prozesse durch omnifunktionale Technologien zu optimieren: Point-of-Sale, Kioske, Self-Checkouts, Kunden, ERP, ESL, stationärer und Online-Shop kommunizieren und kooperieren direkt online über den iCore miteinander. Verkaufs- und Logistikprozesse zwischen Filialen im selben Unternehmen werden in Echtzeit online miteinander verzahnt, um den Verkauf und die Customer Experience effizienter und flexibler zu gestalten.

Digitale Lösungen verändern die Customer Journey und eröffnen dem Einzelhandel neue Wettbewerbschancen und die Möglichkeit, den Kundenservice zu verbessern. Die stationären und mobilen Systeme optimal zu integrieren und die steigenden Datenvolumen zu analysieren, um sie effektiv zu nutzen, erfordert intelligente IT-Infrastrukturen und IT-Lösungen. Der TCPOS iCore mit seinem 360° Lösungsportfolio integriert diese Anforderungen auf allen Kanälen.

„Die stationäre Kasse ist immer noch der wichtigste Touchpoint zum Kunden. Doch wandelt der Point-of-Sale sich zu einem „Point-of-Interaction“, erklärt Dirk Schwindling, CEO der Zucchetti GmbH. „Die klassische PC-Kasse wird zunehmend durch mobile POS-Systeme, Self-Checkout-Systeme und Self-Order-Kioske sowie webbasierte Bestellsysteme ergänzt oder ersetzt. Dabei ändert sich an der Logik der Transaktion selbst jedoch nichts. Unser icore POS-Ansatz unterstützt diese Transformation oder Entmaterialisierung der Kasse –während die geräte- und kanalunabhängige POS-Engine unverändert bleibt.“

Innerhalb der iCore-Lösung können sämtliche aktiven Daten, wie Transaktionen, Bestellungen und Kundenverhalten sowie die passiven Daten, z.B. Alter, Geschlecht, Bewegungsprofile und Wetter abhängig von der Realtime-Front-End-Infrastruktur verwendet werden. Das ermöglicht die Steuerung von „intelligenten Aktionen“, die auf den Einkaufswagen der Kunden, Alter, Geschlecht oder Wetter abgestimmt sind. So wandeln sich „Big Data in „Smart Data“.

The post Neu: iCore integriert Retail-Prozesse appeared first on TCPOS Home Future-proof solutions for POS.

Auf der EuroCIS 2019 in Düsseldorf präsentiert TCPOS unter dem Dach seines italienischen Mutterkonzerns Zucchetti, seine neue Digitalisierungsstrategie für den Einzelhandel mit dem Slogan „Grow your Core“. Technische Highlights sind der iCore, der alle Prozesse integriert, die neue TCAPP und ein Self-Checkout, das bei Manor im Live-Betrieb ist.

Bei TCPOS wird die Kasse als iCore-POS zum digitalen Hub der gesamten System-Infrastruktur im Retail und in der Gastronomie. Der iCore soll sämtliche Aufgaben und Prozesse steuern und antreiben: Checkout und Payment, Workforce Management, Warenwirtschaft, Logistik, stationäre Filiale und Online-Shop.  Dazu werden alle Devices mit einer einheitlichen Stammdatenbasis und mit einer durchgängigen Stammdatenpflege organisiert. Während die internen Daten maximal konsistent sind, besteht auf der Anwenderseite viel Raum für Individualität: An jedem Terminal oder Self-Checkout ist der Ablauf je nach Wunsch des Einzelhändlers oder Gastonomen gestaltbar, sowohl inhaltlich auf die Verbraucherwünsche bezogen als auch vom Design her auf die Marke des Einzelhändlers abgestimmt.  Dadurch ist es Einzelhändlern möglich, ein neuartiges Shoppingerlebnis zu kreieren, das über den klassischen Warenverkauf hinaus zu einer Kundenerfahrung führt, bei der digitaler und physischer Handel verschmelzen, das Einkaufserlebnis sozusagen „Phygital“ wird.

Mit seinem Mutterkonzern Zucchetti auf dem Stand E22 in Halle 9 präsentiert TCPOS die Integration folgender Lösungen in seine multifunktionale POS-Lösung:

• iCore – Hub für Prozesse
• TCAPP – App zum Bestellen und Zahlen für die Gastronomie
• Zucchetti – Workforce Management, Mago – Warenwirtschaft / ERP Lösung
• Self-Checkout – Stationäre Lösung bei Manor
• Self-Order Kiosk – Bestellen am Kiosk in der Gastronomie

Neben dem iCore präsentiert TCPOS als Neuheit auf der Messe erstmalig die TCAPP, eine Whitelabel-Lösung, mit der Gastronomen ihren Kunden die Bestellung und Bezahlung per App ermöglichen.

Eine weitere Neuheit ist eine stationäre Self-Checkout-Lösung, die Kassentechnologie mit intuitiver Selbstbedienung beim Kassieren im Einzelhandel verbindet. Die Lösung ist bei der schweizerischen Warenhauskette Manor im Einsatz. In einem Vortrag im EuroCIS-Forum am 20.2.2019 um 11.00 Uhr berichten Beat Steiner, Head of digital POS und Service Desk, Manor AG, und Nico Karges, Senior Sales Consultant, Zucchetti GmbH, über die Erfahrungen im Live-Betrieb des Systems.

Auch die Workforce Management Suite Zucchetti HR Infinity ist auf dem gemeinsamen Messestand vertreten. Diese bildet alle operativen HR-Themen ab, von Zeiterfassung über Personaleinsatzplanung bis zu Workflow Management und Self-Service-Funktionen. Sie ermöglicht die Organisation von Mitarbeitern und Schichten anhand von Qualifikationen, Tarifverträgen und weiteren Daten und bietet einen webbasierten, mobilen Zugriff.

At this year’s EuroCIS, Zucchetti presents a brand new app for guests in restaurants and public catering. With its “menu”, “order” and “payment” sections, the app becomes the perfect menu planner for guests that want to choose their meals before actually getting to the restaurant or canteen. With the “TCApp” guests can in fact order and pay with their smartphone and the complete range of functionalities is seamlessly integrated in the existing POS system.

TCApp: When guests are in a hurry
Guests automatically receive the restaurant’s menu on their smartphone. All dishes are displayed digitally so guests can conveniently choose their meals before visiting the restaurant. The app also draws attention to any specialties and provides an overview of allergens and loyalty programs can be integrated. The app is available to iOS and Android users – that way guests can easily order and pay on the way.

Zucchetti’s TCPOS app is a white label solution i.e. clients can customize and adapt it to their own brand. It includes functionalities like the virtual customer card, order and collect as well as the possibility to order at the table.

“Same as with our other POS solutions in retail, the TCApp is based on the idea of omni-functionality paired with practical industry expertise. The app is designed to meet the needs of modern guests who expect maximum convenience in canteens, restaurants and public catering. It has been developed by experts of the hospitality industry.” explains Dirk Schwindling, CEO of Zucchetti GmbH.

TCPOS blickt auf eine erfolgreiche EuroCIS 2019 zurück: Es herrschte Hochbetrieb am Messestand, der im Verbund mit der Mutterfirma Zucchetti im neuen Design glänzte. Das erweiterte Lösungsportfolio vom POS über Payment bis zu ERP und Workforce Management fand großes Interesse bei Fachbesuchern aus Retail und Hospitality.

„Die EuroCIS ist der wichtigste Branchentreff“, so Dirk Schwindling, CEO der Zucchetti GmbH und CEO der TCPOS Group. „Die Messe hat bei den Experten aus dem Retail einen festen Platz in der Terminplanung und zunehmend entwickelt sie auch für Vertreter der Gastronomie und Gemeinschaftsverpflegung eine hohe Relevanz, um Digitalisierungsstrategien zu diskutieren und voranzutreiben.“

„Auf der diesjährigen EuroCIS haben wir uns gefreut, dass viele unserer großen Kunden und Partner unseren Messestand besucht haben und wir einen guten Austausch hatten. Unser Eindruck von der Messe: Die Messehallen waren sehr gut besucht und an unserem Stand herrschte Hochbetrieb an den ersten beiden Tagen.  Der letzte Tag war etwas ruhiger. “

Erstmalig war TCPOS am gemeinsamen Messestand mit seiner italienischen Mutterfirma Zucchetti, einem internationalen Anbieter von HR- und ERP- Lösungen, vertreten. Die Gruppe zeigte ein wesentlich erweitertes Lösungsportfolio, rund um den iCore-POS. Dieser integriert und steuert ausgehend vom Frontend Kasse sämtliche Prozesse wie Checkout, Payment, Workforce Management, Warenwirtschaft, Logistik, stationäre Filiale und Online-Shop.

„Mehr Lösungen, mehr Besucher, mehr Gespräche. Die diesjährige EuroCIS war für uns ein voller Erfolg. Wir haben es auf der Messe geschafft, die Message zu transportieren, dass TCPOS weiter Bestand hat und als Produkt weiterentwickelt wird – unter dem Dach unserer größeren Mutterfirma Zucchetti“, so Dirk Schwindling. „Die Ausweitung unseres Lösungsportfolios, inklusive Warenwirtschaft und Omnichannel-Lösungen unter dem Dach von Zucchetti, wurde gut angenommen. Wir freuen uns schon auf die EuroShop 2020.”

Der Messestand von TCPOS wurde erstmalig im Design von Zucchetti realisiert und brachte zum Ausdruck, dass die Integration der TCPOS-Lösungen vollumfänglich erfolgt ist. TCPOS wird in diesem Jahr in Zucchetti umfirmieren – die TCPOS-Produkte werden unter dem Produktnamen TCPOS weiterentwickelt. Der Schritt soll das Wachstum der Gruppe vorantreiben.

“Over the past years the synergy with the other companies of Zucchetti Group and its international expansion, has allowed our company to further develop invaluable capabilities,” says Dirk Schwindling, CEO of Zucchetti Switzerland SA. “It is time for us to choose a new name that goes beyond the product, but that conveys the combination of our current development and can better reflect our image in the future and our global presence, as a full-fledged subsidiary of Zucchetti Group”.

The TCPOS logo will still identify our POS solution. It has been our job for over two decades, and our units will keep designing POS solutions to boost our clients’ success in their business, inside the iCore galaxy of integrated solutions. This new strategy moves beyond the classic in-store activities of POS systems to reach customers at home, as well as supporting vendors and caterers organizing teams through effective shift scheduling and forecasting. “The Zucchetti brand is now synonymous with excellence not only in Italy, but also abroad” Declares Enrico Itri – Zucchetti International Chief Operating Officer “This is why the time has come to clearly communicate to the market that the first Italian software company is present directly in several countries around the world. In the case of Zucchetti Switzerland, one of the main objectives is to propose other application components of the Zucchetti offer together with the TCPOS solutions”.

Zucchetti management sees TCPOS’ success as a driving force for the evolution of the IT group. “The acquisition of TCPOS in 2013 was a milestone in the Zucchetti Group’s internationalization process.” Says Alessandro Zucchetti, President of Zucchetti Group. “Today the birth of Zucchetti Switzerland validates the virtuous nature of that operation and our desire to continue investing abroad, starting from the excellent results obtained in Europe“.

Die Kienast-Unternehmensgruppe, eines der fünf führenden Schuhhandelsunternehmen in Deutschland, wird die Kassenlösung TCPOS und die Warenwirtschaft Mago ERP von Zucchetti einführen, um die Prozesse in seinem Online- und Offline-Filialgeschäft zu verbessern. Mit rund 400 Schuhgeschäften und 2.200 Mitarbeitern ist Kienast im Einzelhandel mit fünf Verkaufskonzepten ABC Schuh-Center, K+K Schuh-Center, Shoe4You, street shoes, CLAUDIO Schuhe und im Bereich „Wholesale” (Systemgeschäft) am Markt präsent.

„Als einer der größten deutschen Schuhhändler wollen wir das stationäre und Online-Geschäft auf die Zukunft ausrichten. Um diese Herausforderung zu bewältigen, muss die Software für unseren Universal Channel Geschäftsbetrieb innovativ und effektiv sein und reibungslos funktionieren“, erklärt Marco Kling, Geschäftsführer der Kienast-Unternehmensgruppe. „Deswegen haben wir uns für die Kassensoftware TCPOS und die ERP-Lösung Mago von Zucchetti entschieden. Die neuen Systeme werden uns bei der Digitalisierung helfen, weil sie die Servicequalität auf der Fläche verbessern und uns ermöglichen, weitere Services für unsere Kunden anzubieten.“

Die italienische Zucchetti-Gruppe bietet Einzelhändlern und Gastronomen jeder Größe Softwarelösungen, um Einzelhandelsprozesse effektiver zu gestalten, unter anderem in Form der Kassensoftware TCPOS sowie durch die Personaleinsatzplanung Infinity und die ERP-Lösung Mago.

„TCPOS stellt eine hochintegrative POS-Lösung dar, die durch den iCore-POS als 360-Grad-Lösung das Zusammenspiel mit anderen Systemen erheblich vereinfacht”, verrät Dirk Schwindling, CEO der Zucchetti Germany GmbH in Deutschland. „Dadurch können sich Mitarbeiter auf der Fläche auf andere wesentliche Dinge konzentrieren. Unsere Softwarelösung bietet außerdem basierend auf den vom Mitarbeiter eingegebenen Daten nach unterschiedlichen Kriterien eine erste Auswahl geeigneter Schuhe und erleichtert den Mitarbeitern der Filialen so die Arbeit.”

Mit der Kienast-Unternehmensgruppe hat sich erstmalig ein Fashion-Anbieter aus dem Einzelhandel für Zucchetti entschieden und damit die Position von Zucchetti als Anbieter von Kassensoftware in dieser Branche gefestigt. Weitere Kunden aus Einzelhandel und Gastronomie sind unter anderem Alnatura, Eataly, Friedel und Vodafone.

„Ein Grund für unsere Entscheidung ist die Expertise von TCPOS in der Gastronomie, in der wir Vorteile erkannt haben, die uns weiterhelfen werden“, sagt Marco Kling. „Seit Jahren ist man in der Gastronomie mit mobilen Endgeräten auf der Fläche, wickelt Zahlungen ab und spielt diese elektronisch weiter. Das sind Prozesse, die wir bei Fashionkassen und Softwareanbietern so nicht gefunden haben, die aber in der heutigen Zeit logisch erscheinen und ein guter Ansatz sind, die Services, die wir seit vielen Jahren in der Gastronomie kennen, auch im Fashionbereich zu übernehmen und für unsere Funktionalität anzupassen.“

TCPOS ermöglicht es sowohl großen Konzernen als auch kleinen und mittelständische Unternehmen, ihre Omnichannel-Prozesse strukturierter und effektiver zu gestalten. Dazu gehören unter anderem Mobile Payment, Zahlung mit PayPal, Self-Service-Checkouts, Kioske und die Integration von Workforce Management und wie in diesem Fall Mago ERP als prozessorientierte Logistiklösung für Filialen: Abverkäufe aus TCPOS sind direkt bestandswirksam und können weitere Prozesse wie zum Beispiel Nachlieferungen aus Zentrallager, Bestellungen oder auch – falls vorhanden – Produktionsaufträge anstoßen.

Kienast will mit der neuen Software stationäres und Online-Geschäft verzahnen, um einen Universal Channel Geschäftsbetrieb zu etablieren. Der Service dem Kunden gegenüber soll digital und analog gespielt werden, um den bestmöglichen Service zu bieten. So soll zukünftig über die flexiblen Filiallager in Mago ERP ein digitaler Bestand an Schuhen auch analog im Zugriff sein, um die Konversionsrate erhöhen zu können. „Das Entscheidende ist ein hohes Maß an Transparenz im Unternehmen zu haben und den Kunden die Möglichkeit zu geben, über die verschiedenen Kanäle Zugang zu den Produkten zu haben”, so Marco Kling. „Unsere Anforderung ist, auf die Bedürfnisse des Kunden von Morgen einzugehen.“

Die direkte Integration von Mago ERP mit der Kassenlösung bewertet Kienast als sehr enges Zusammenspiel und als Vorteil für schnellere Prozesse. Das bestehende ERP-System wird durch die Softwarelösung Mago als Middleware ergänzt. Ziel ist es, über verschiedene juristische Einheiten hinweg Bestände und Änderungen in nahezu Echtzeit vorzuhalten und kanalübergreifend sämtliche Bestände zur Verfügung zu stellen. Für die Zukunft ist geplant weitere Prozesse zu implementieren, wobei sich die bereits abgeschlossene Vollintegration aller TCPOS-Systeme auszahlen soll.

Über Kienast

Mit einer über 60-jährigen Erfolgsgeschichte wurde die Kienast-Unternehmensgruppe zu einem der größten Schuhfilialisten Deutschlands. Zur Kienast-Unternehmensgruppe gehören street shoes, Shoe4You, die ABC Schuh-Center, die K+K Schuh-Center und CLAUDIO Schuhe.  Zusammen bilden diese unterschiedlichen Verkaufskonzepte eines der größten und erfolgreichsten Unternehmen der deutschen Schuhbranche. Mit etwa 1800 Mitarbeitern, über 420 Filialen und einer jährlichen Verkaufsmenge von 8 Mio. Paar Schuhen gelingt es Kienast, besonders günstige Konditionen bei den Lieferanten zu erzielen und so attraktive Preisvorteile an die Kunden weiterzugeben. www.kienast-schuhe.de

From mobile and PayPal payments, to self-service checkouts, kiosks and staff planning: software house Zucchetti, the parent company of TCPOS, offers a wide range of solutions for this purpose.

The POS solution has been extended by the integration of the Zucchetti ERP solution Mago. Retailers will find a process-oriented logistics solution for stores: sales from the POS system have a direct impact on the stock and they automatically trigger further processes, such as subsequent deliveries from a central warehouse, purchase or manufacturing orders.

This helps companies achieving their goal of maintaining inventories and changes across different legal units in near real-time, thus making all inventories available across all channels.

The full integration of the systems streamlines the implementation so that both large corporations as well as small and medium-sized enterprises can design their universal channel processes more effectively.

At this year’s Igeho, Zucchetti will present its omni-functional solutions for Hospitality with which the guest experience can be automated online and offline. Some of the highlights are the new TCApp, the upgraded self-ordering kiosk, the automated dish recognition at the POS and integrated workforce management.

The Igeho is the most important international fair for hotels, hospitality, take-away and care institutions in Switzerland, that will take place from 16^th to 20^th November 2019 in Basel.

The omni-functional TCPOS solution is the center of Zucchetti’s presence this year in Hall 1.1, at Stand B135. It has been extended with many modern applications: the TCApp is a mobile app for paying and ordering, the Self-Ordering Kiosk modernizes orders in the quick service, Dish Recognition is an automated software for the recognition of food and drinks designed for public catering, and Infinity Zucchetti, the Human Capital Management suite, equipped with AI to improve the management of employees, from shift scheduling to Time & Attendance tracking. Everything is completely integrated in the iCore concept, Zucchetti’s strategy that helps caterers and vendors being supported by a software ecosystem in sales, services to guests and staff organization.

TCApp: mobile ordering and payments

Nowadays, the smartphone is a daily companion for many tasks. In hospitality, TCPOS offers an important benefit for customers: with TCApp, guests can order and pay at the restaurant. With this white label app, restaurant owners can offer their guests a convenient combination of menu reservations and the possibility to quickly pay with their mobile through an easy-to-use application.

Self-Ordering Kiosk for the quickest service

Another highlight is the self-ordering kiosk – it combines POS technology with intuitive self-order technology for quick service restaurants. Customers can place their orders at the kiosk and receive it at the counter, or they can take a puck with them to their table so waiters will be able to find them. The main focus in the development focused on the user experience – it was designed to be as comprehensive, uncomplicated and convenient as possible. The kiosk seamlessly integrates the placing of orders into the workflow: from orders in the kitchen over data transfer, up to the point of sale – easy, quick and convenient.

Automated dish recognition for corporate catering/restaurants

The new Dish Recognition is a computer system that uses a top-view camera to detect the food and drinks on the tray. The system works with the POS and helps accelerate the check-out process with automated dish recognition. Moreover, the entire solution is integrated with cashless payment methods such as company cards and other common cards.

Workforce Management and Scheduling

For the first time, Zucchetti will exhibit Infinity Zucchetti, its Human Capital Management Suite. The solution covers all operative personnel management areas, from T&A over shift planning and management up to Workflow Management and self-service functionalities.

Hi-Tech, innovative software solutions, top-notch services and happy customers: these are some synonyms of Zucchetti, an international group that, for many years now, has been rapidly expanding its influence in Europe promoting the iCore concept. iCore means helping our customers grow with a galaxy of applications ranging from POS, to HR management, ERP, Access control, and much more, providing a single point of contact for all their needs of digital transformation, simplified processes and maximised results.

The Retail business, a dynamic and multi-faceted reality, is not new for the group. For decades, our POS, ERP and HR solutions have been supporting many important brands worldwide but, considering the ever-increasing need of digital solutions, Zucchetti decided to establish a team of expert dedicated to study and design solutions that will lead Retail towards the future, the Retail Competence Center (RCC).

We asked a few questions to the representatives of the RCC.

Why was the Retail Competence Center established in the first place?

With the RCC, Zucchetti manifests its intention to expand its position in the retail market and to become a leading provider of solutions and services. We aim at covering the entire retail value chain, including solution-neutral consulting services. This will enable us to go beyond designing POS software, a sector where Zucchetti needs no introduction considering our important customer base.

Which are the tasks of the RCC and how is it organized?

With the acquisition of Data Connect and ReWa-Soft, the retail knowledge of our group was significantly boosted. These companies have been established for decades in the retail market and are both provided with first class customer references. Founding the RCC was a logical step forward.

The Center is guided by the team behind the former company Data Connect. Jürg Baumgartner leads a steering committee consisting of several country managers. Michael Fuchs is responsible for the technical side of all activities.

The tasks are the centralization of know-how, the bundling of market information and the international coordination of retail projects. The Center supports teams in different countries in key account and project management, pre-sale activities, and helps studying and launching innovation.

The first stage of the RCC work focuses on the DACH region with the intention to rapidly offer our expertise worldwide.

Which are the highlights of the current projects?

The RCC is currently in charge of developing a roadmap for the retail market. Ten different topics have currently been identified, which will now be specified and implemented. We can disclose further details to any colleague who wants to have more detailed and in-depth information.

What is the advantage for Zucchetti of having a retail-focused center?

The RCC shows customers that the retail market is strategical for Zucchetti and opens many new opportunities for sales teams to enter discussions with customers.

Zucchetti’s internal sales processes and projects can be more efficiently organized and enhanced with years of experience. For employees, the platform will provide a new identity and cooperation within a wider team. We are convinced that the RCC is useful for Zucchetti’s partner companies, which can count on us as a unique coordination point.

Where do you think the RCC can fully express its expertise in the Zucchetti family?

We analysed our structures in detail – Says Dirk Schwindling, CEO of Zucchetti Switzerland SA –  Zucchetti has several decades of experience through the acquisition of TCPOS, RewaSoft and Data Connect in the retail market made by software designers, developers, project managers, sales forces. Under the roof of Zucchetti, we bring together companies that bring several decades of market experience. The most experienced employees from these teams are involved in the project.

Based on more than 30 years of experience in the Catering and Vending markets, Paycult is a trusted, reliable and recognized partner for its proven capabilities in consulting, software, hardware and services.

Since its inception, the company rapidly established itself as a leading, innovative manufacturer and service provider in the German Catering and Vending markets. The company has branches near Berlin, Hamburg, Frankfurt and its production office is located in Weingarten.

Zucchetti, one of the major players in the IT sector in Europe, recently acquired Paycult, adding a wide variety of payment systems to its already rich portfolio that includes applications for HR management, POS and Access control solutions.

Together, Zucchetti and Paycult own today’s largest installation base in the area of corporate catering in Germany. However, this collaboration comes from far away: the two companies have now been business partners for more than ten years and the collaboration has always been effective, trusting and friendly.

The extensive know-how of Paycult employees poses the foundation for a successful cooperation with numerous clients in the catering and vending industry, exploiting Paycult expertise in both cash and cashless payments, covering all company needs 360 degrees.

“Business takes place between people” says Helmuth Butt, CEO of Paycult. “I am very sure that this maxim will also apply to the newly formed bond between Zucchetti and Paycult! The acquisition of Paycult by Zucchetti is the logical consequence of over one decade of trusting and successful cooperation”.

 “The acquisition is a sign of Zucchetti’s continued evolution in the European key segments”, affirms Dirk Schwindling, CEO of Zucchetti Germany GmbH, “The know-how of the employees and the quality of products support our strategy to make highly integrated solutions available to the market. The acquisition of Paycult is extremely important for the “transformation” of TCPOS into Zucchetti, both from the product and the corporate side of things”.

“Paycult products have always matched all payment needs of Zucchetti’s clients using our POS solutions”, explains Schwindling, “We have been collaborating for decades and often felt as we belonged together, so it was natural to finally join forces under the Zucchetti brand”.

“The acquisition of Paycult helps Zucchetti to place its expertise in the catering and vending sector”, continues Schwindling, “with the help of an experienced and respected provider and we strengthen and anchor our presence in the German market, aiming to expand it day by day”.
