The Neighbours stores use the Customer-Self Service and integrated Kitchen Production System to place orders from a range of food items that include specialty coffees, breakfast bagels, hot and cold made-to-order subs, grilled paninis, wraps and fresh salads. In addition to the in-store ordering kiosks, Radiant is providing point of sale hardware and software for all Neighbours drive-through locations.

Radiant has deployed more than 5,000 customer self-service ordering kiosks with top convenience retailers in the United States, Canada, and the United Kingdom, enabling made-to-order sandwich programs, specialty coffee offerings, and a wide variety of other complex menus. Properly designed and implemented self-service solutions are proven to improve the speed of customer service, increase up-sells, and help ensure order accuracy.

"For more than 10 years Radiant has been providing technology to enhance the foodservice operations of our clients and improve the speed and accuracy of ordering for their customers," said Jimmy Frangis, vice president of the global petroleum and convenience retail division at Radiant Systems.
