Connie Lee has been at the helm of two of Perth’s most beloved dining spots, Hawkers Cuisine and Old Lane Street Eats for many years.
Located in the heart of Perth’s Chinatown, and known for their authentic and eclectic offerings of Asian street food, both venues provide for a diverse custome base ranging from locals looking for nostalgic flavours, to tourists seeking an authentic taste of Asia. Managing neighbouring venues where customers can order from both menus demands a flexible and efficient Point of Sale (POS) system - and that’s exactly where Triniteq stepped in.
Connie Lee, the owner, had been using Lightspeed as their POS system, however the rigid nature of Lightspeed posed significant challenges. The system didn’t accommodate their unique service model where customers often order from both restaurant menus but want a seamless payment experience.
This setup led to issues like missed payments, manual errors, and complicated transactions. The staff had to transfer orders between two separate POS systems, which often resulted in mistakes, particularly during peak hours. The complexity of managing two menus through two systems created inefficiencies and stress, leaving Connie frustrated knowing that payments were being missed, and searching for a more flexible solution.
Connie was introduced to Triniteq’s PowerEPOS through a recommendation from a fellow restaurateur. Recognising the need for a system that could handle the intricacies of her dual-restaurant setup, Connie reached out to Triniteq.
After discussing her specific needs, and providing the Triniteq team with a ‘mud map’ of how the system needs to be set up, the Triniteq team got to work. They developed a customised solution that merged the two restaurant operations into one seamless POS system.
PowerEPOS was tailored to handle orders from both Hawkers Cuisine and Old Lane, ensuring that the kitchen received clear and accurate instructions without the need for manual transfers and in-person communication.
Triniteq’s tech team worked closely with Connie to map out the exact flow of operations, ensuring that the POS system was fully aligned with her business processes. Triniteq also introduced the Insights reporting tool, allowing Connie and her bookkeeper to generate detailed, customised reports that simplified accounting and financial management.
I was initially sceptical about switching our POS system because I thought it would be too complicated. However, after speaking with a colleague who recommended Triniteq, I decided to give it a try. From the start, the team at Triniteq, especially Neskeen and Bryce, impressed me with their
willingness to customise the system to fit our complex needs.They took the time to understand our requirements and set up the POS to
seamlessly integrate our two venues. The demo was spot-on, addressing all our specific needs and the result was a POS system that works perfectly for us, both on the front end for customers, and in the kitchen.Triniteq’s flexibility and attention to detail made the transition smooth and hassle free. We now have a unified system that handles all transactions across both venues efficiently, without the previous headaches of managing multiple POS systems. I couldn’t be happier with the outcome!”
