Romano’s Macaroni Grill® Selects Radiant Systems Technology for Its Restaurants

Aloha Enterprise solution helps company control and reduce costs

ATLANTA (March 22, 2010) — Radiant Systems, Inc. (Nasdaq: RADS) today announced a new agreement with Romano’s Macaroni Grill, the premium Italian Mediterranean restaurant brand, to install the Aloha Enterprise solution along with Radiant P1520 hardware terminals across its entire number of 186 company-owned restaurants.

“Radiant stood out to us as a restaurant technology provider because of their complete solution, including their back office management capabilities that will help us measure and analyze our food and labor costs in real time to make effective decisions immediately,” said Bob Mock, chief operating officer at Romano’s Macaroni Grill. “Radiant’s willingness to be a great partner to us throughout the competitive process solidified our decision, and they have continued to provide high-quality service as we convert to our new technology across the country.”

The Aloha Enterprise solution selected by Romano’s Macaroni Grill provides the technology needed to run its restaurants more efficiently – from automating its daily operations, to measuring performance, managing to better results and marketing to consumers. The power of Aloha Enterprise’s back office capabilities allows the company to better analyze its restaurant operations, find areas for improvement and control labor and food costs. Romano’s Macaroni Grill managers can view operational data across all sites from any location to make quick decisions when necessary. In many cases, the Aloha Enterprise solution’s in-depth reporting has saved operators more than two percent of their overall food costs. Radiant’s back office applications not only have a fast return on investment, but they allow management to have more control with no impact, and often an improvement to the guest experience.  

“Radiant’s award-winning Aloha Enterprise solution can help deliver tangible results straight to Romano’s Macaroni Grill’s bottom line and increase profitability by controlling and lowering food and labor costs while improving the guest experience,” said Tad Phelps, vice president of sales and marketing for the hospitality division at Radiant Systems. “The strength of our people also continues to be a differentiator for our company and we are proud that the quality service they provide sets us apart from our competitors.”
