CKE taps Ignify eCommerce to power self-service portal

March 6, 2011

CKE Restaurants Inc., parent company of Carl’s Jr. and Hardee’s Restaurants, has chosen Ignify eCommerce to power a new online business-to-business portal that gives restaurant owners a fully-automated ordering process for the sale of supplies and kitchen equipment.

CKE will implement Ignify eCommerce’s version 4.12 end-to-end online storefront and business commerce platform. The platform transparently integrates with most ERP and CRM solutions to help automate order processing.

Restaurant owners will now be able to eliminate manual order entry, view and track orders, easily place orders from purchase history and view and pay invoices online. Ignify eCommerce addresses security concerns by meeting all requirements specified in the Payment Application Data Security Standard (PA DSS) set by the PCI Security Standards Council.

The Ignify platform is set to streamline CKE’s corporate productivity and lower overall costs by maintaining supplies at optimal levels based on the unique needs of each restaurant location,” said Sandeep Walia, CEO of Ignify.

As the Retail Microsoft Partner of the Year Finalist in 2010 and a member of the Microsoft Dynamics Inner Circle in 2009, Ignify eCommerce is recognized as the leading online web store and e-commerce solution for Microsoft Dynamics ERP, having been deployed at more than 200 sites including McDonalds Corporation, Aerosoles, Giant Bicycles, the Atlanta Falcons and Dallas Cowboys NFL teams.
