NEW HARTFORD, N.Y. — PAR Technology Corp. has inked a deal to install POS terminals in 875 current and 75 future Papa Murphy's Take 'N' Bake Pizza units.
According to a news release, Papa Murphy's units will use PAR's Infusion Software Suite and newest hardware platform, ViGo.
The applications integrate front-of-the-house and back-office systems to provide up-to-the-minute data reporting.
Papa Murphy's also will use PAR's InQuire, a hosted, Web-based Enterprise Reporting service that consolidates systemwide store data and posts it to a secure Web site.
To quickly integrate PAR's technology into its units, Papa Murphy's is requiring all new franchisees to utilize the PAR system. The company also will offer incentives to existing franchisees to make the switch/upgrade.
"In selecting PAR and their integrated product suite, we were not merely looking for a technology vendor, but rather we needed a partner who shared our carefully founded vision," said Papa Murphy's president Mark Laramie. "(T)he company's industry reputation is second to none."
