Nashville-based QSR, Back Yard Burgers, is replacing its legacy POS in four states with Qu's open, API-first POS system to enhance the burger chain's order management and give it greater guest insights for sales growth, a news release said.
Back Yard Burger leaders wanted faster ordering and service, and chose the system to better align their many ordering channels on the web, via mobile and through kiosk interfaces. That will be integrated with an inventory control and payroll system, the release said.
"Ultimately a brand like Back Yard Burger needs a backbone for open integration built on a one source of truth as well as a built-in 'data scientist' to give us predictive data points," Back Yard Burger CEO Scott Shotter, said in the release. "That's the North Star we are aiming for."
After successfully rolling out the corporate stores in 2019, Qu will be offered to Back Yard Burger's franchisees company-wide in 2020. The brand currently has 50 locations across 11 states.
