UK POS Extends Its Expertise To The Hospitality Industry With Its New Brochure Launch!

With the hospitality industry one of many hit by the economic downtown, UK Point Of Sale (UK POS) is introducing a new range of point of sale to help encourage consumers to see the value in dining out despite the climate, in its new brochure, which is available from September.

Including stylish wooden chalk boards and menu holders, UK POS already supplies the hospitality range to major key accounts but is now introducing it to the mass market thanks to its fantastic reception.

With families now said to be £470 a year poorer due to petrol, food and utility price increases* and the subsequent drop in consumer spending affecting the hospitality industry, UK POS understands that every penny counts. The leading manufacturer of point of sale is therefore working to help hoteliers, restaurateurs and bar and café owners continue to attract customers and highlight their all important offers and promotions.

As well as the new range of products tailored towards the hospitality industry, UK POS has revamped and rejuvenated its brochure, to cater for the needs of its extensive client base and, as always, is reiterating its commitment to supplying quality products at competitive prices. Those interested in receiving a copy of the new brochure are being encouraged to request one in advance by calling the sales team directly on 0161 431 4400.

UK POS’ Sales & Marketing Director, Debra Jamieson, said: “It’s no secret that the last few years have been tough for quite a few industries and we make a special effort to identify areas where we can help. The new hospitality range is sophisticated and stylish whilst also functional; we’ve had tremendous feedback from they key accounts that have been using it to date and are looking forward to introducing it to some new venues and monitoring its success.”

UK POS to Share the Love this Valentine’s Day

UK POS, the market leader in the point of sale industry, has announced it will be keeping prices low in time for Valentine’s Day, despite this month’s VAT increase and soaring acrylic costs.

On January 4, the government increased VAT by 2.5 per cent to 20 per cent, while acrylic costs have also risen for the eleventh consecutive month. The price of acrylic rose by 40 per cent rise in the first six months of 2010 alone. UK POS uses 300 tonnes of the material every year to make its range of products such as Menu Holders and leaflet holders

As usual, demand is expected to peak in the run up to Valentine’s day as retailers look to increase brand and product awareness through point of sale advertising. And in an effort to support its customers, UK POS has looked at alternatives to raising prices, such as rationalising product lines and streamlining internal processes to avoid waste. Bulk buying and forward planning have also helped lower costs and stopped the company from having to pass on significant price increases to customers. UK POS has now pledged to continue in this vein throughout 2011.

Jason Leslie, managing director of UK POS, said Valentine’s Day, on February 14, is the next major date for the retail industry following the January sales, and the company will be ensuring customers have access to the highest quality point of sale items like Leaflet dispenser and Poster holder at competitive prices.

He said: “Acrylic prices have been at an all time low for the last five to six years, so the price increases during 2010 certainly came as a shock.

“UK POS is a family run business and has very traditional values at its core. There was never any doubt that we would do all we could to avoid passing any kind of inflation on to our customers. All departments of the business have pulled together to manage margins and this has enabled us to keep prices at a competitive level.” UKPOS will continue to make savings in order to offset rising costs throughout 2011 in order to keep prices low.
