POSist, a leading cloud-based restaurant technology platform serving over 9,000 restaurants in 35 countries, announced its integration with Deliverect, a fast-growing Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) scale-up that connects third-party food delivery platforms for 12,000 establishments around the globe. Through this integration, POSist’s customers across the Middle East can seamlessly sync various food aggregators, such as Deliveroo, Talabat, Zomato, Careem, Hungerstation, among others. Deliverect’s gateway cloud-based solution enables integration of all popular food delivery apps, connecting these with POSist’s platform without any hassle.

Restaurants of all sizes struggle to enable delivery, especially when partnering with more than one delivery service. This can complicate online sales channels and discourage some restaurants from adding new channels to grow their business. Deliverect eliminates the need for restaurant servers and back-end staff to monitor multiple devices and manually punch orders into their existing system, significantly reducing both order errors and staff workload.

In fact, Deliverect’s SaaS platform also helps restaurants who decided to adopt a cloud kitchen-style business model, by selling meals exclusively through delivery with no sitting capacity for in-house diners, to thrive. A recent survey conducted by POSist and Dubai Restaurants Group, under the patronage of the Dubai Chamber of Commerce, showed that 70 percent of otherwise dine-in players are now exploring the idea of investing in cloud kitchens, as per the survey restaurateurs shared that as high as 66 percent of diners now prefer ordering online over dining out.

The integration of POSist and Deliverect offers an omnichannel approach to streamline orders from third-party aggregators for restaurants and cloud kitchens. Menu management is one of the key priorities for delivery kitchens. Integration with Deliverect will enable restaurant operators to edit and update multiple menus with one click, directly from the Deliverect Menu Builder, and sync all orders with POSist stock & inventory management for more accurate inventory control. In addition, the integration gives analytics and reports on sales as per different channels. The result is a better operation that ensures order accuracy, saves time and resources, and ultimately increases overall restaurant revenue.

“The integration between Deliverect and POSist is a win-win for restaurants at a time when online ordering is going to be a necessity for businesses. Restaurants worldwide are pivoting to deliveries to tap the enormous opportunity to cater to the changing consumer preferences. Even as the dine-in footfall is increasing in many parts of the world, brands are considering investing in setting up deliveries via aggregators and their own channels. Deliverect solves this problem by bringing multiple channels under one platform and on top of it enable seamless flow of information to the POSist interface, allowing our customers to optimize delivery and grow revenue.” said Ashish Tulsian, Co-founder and CEO, POSist.

“We are happy to be working with POSist. Deliverect and POSist share the same vision to help the hospitality industry by automating workflows and optimizing operational efficiency. Especially since COVID-19, there has been a pressing need for technology solutions to support restaurants and cloud kitchens in managing the increasing number of online orders. At Deliverect, we continue to expand our ecosystem of partners to ensure that we are addressing the challenges that our customers in the Middle East are facing,” said Naji Haddad, GM, Middle East of Deliverect.
