Deliverect Kiosk Arrives in UK: The Cloud-Based Lifeline for Restaurants Facing Ongoing Operational Pressures

Business Wire21-05-2025
LONDON--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Deliverect, a leading global food tech SaaS company, today announced the UK launch of Deliverect Kiosk, a fully integrated self-service solution designed to streamline in-store operations and elevate the customer experience. This launch, building on Deliverect's acquisition of European kiosk innovator Tabesto in late 2024, marks a strategic expansion of Deliverect's omnichannel capabilities in the UK market, helping restaurants meet growing demand for efficient, tech-enabled service. At peak times, restaurants saw queues disappear and ticket sizes soar 32%, within a few weeks of installing Deliverect Kiosk. Further, early customers noted a 17% reduction in average order time, while 50% of kiosk orders included an upsell and 38% contained at least one paid add-on, a powerful combination that lifts revenue while reducing operational pressure.
With Deliverect Kiosk, restaurants gain more than just a self-service screen, they unlock a cloud-based, fully integrated ordering experience designed to drive conversion and scale with ease. Operating entirely in the cloud, the Kiosk ensures that menus are centrally managed and updated in real time across all locations, with built-in upselling and smart bundling to grow ticket sizes, no staff involvement required. Whether counter-service, QSR, or dine-in, the Kiosk offers flexible hardware options, floor-standing, wall-mounted, or countertop to suit any restaurant layout. It supports multilingual ordering, localised promotions, and loyalty integrations to engage customers across diverse markets. Real-time stock synchronisation with your POS ensures diners only see what's available; creating a smoother, more satisfying guest experience from first tap to order fulfilment.
'The timing of this launch couldn't be more relevant,' said Joe Heather, Regional General Manager at Deliverect. 'With the recent increases to the National Minimum Wage and National Insurance contributions coming into effect in April, operators are feeling the squeeze. Deliverect Kiosk gives restaurants a practical way to manage rising labour costs, streamlining front-of-house operations, speeding up service, and allowing staff to focus on more valuable, customer-facing tasks.'
The launch comes at a critical time as UK operators face mounting pressure from labour shortages, operational bottlenecks during peak hours, and rising consumer demand for fast, tech-powered experiences. With built-in upselling, real-time menu sync, and full integrations with POS, KDS, and delivery aggregators, Deliverect Kiosk puts operators in control, offering centralised configuration, smart product availability sync, loyalty integrations, and access to real-time transaction dashboards, offering greater flexibility for restaurants. It's a unified solution that optimises performance both on- and off-premise, while simplifying day-to-day management for restaurant teams.
Key Benefits of Deliverect Kiosk:
Faster service: Self-ordering reduces queue times and improves order throughput.
Higher order value: AI-powered upsell prompts and event-based promotions encourage add-ons and upgrades.
Rapid deployment with plug-and-play hardware: Powered by Fox Kiosk, the most operator-friendly, modular solution on the market.
Deliverect Kiosk features an all-in-one design with built-in NFC (Near Field Communication) for secure contactless payments (via Deliverect Pay) and printer-free QR code digital receipts.
Its sleek 22' touchscreen is available in wall, counter, or floor-mounted formats, enabling flexible installation with minimal setup.
Restaurants can go live in under four weeks with minimal IT involvement—ideal for fast-paced, high-volume environments.
Full ecosystem integrations: Syncs with Deliverect's full platform, including delivery channels, POS, and CRM tools.
The Kiosk will be offered as part of a bundled product suite with Deliverect Restaurants, ensuring operators benefit from an end-to-end, fully integrated system that connects in-store and digital ordering workflows. Deliverect Kiosk is already available to restaurants across Germany, Spain, Italy, Switzerland, and Belgium. It is live across the UK starting in May, with further international expansion planned later in 2025.

Beijing Is Desperate for Foreign Money

After years of making heavy demands on foreign investors and business interests, Beijing has awakened to its need for them and so is changing its tune. People walk on The Bund promenade along the Huangpu River during the passage of Typhoon Co-May in Shanghai, China, on July 30, 2025.

Hector Retamal/ AFP via Getty Images Commentary Beijing has learned one thing during the past couple of years, even before President Donald Trump's election: China's economy urgently needs foreign investment money and foreign business interests. For years, it seemed, Beijing acted as if it had all the advantages. Assuming, not incorrectly, that the foreign interests would tolerate a great deal to gain access to Chinese consumers, businesses, and Chinese markets generally, Beijing made stiff demands, among foreigners, imposing layers of red tape on U.S., European, and Japanese companies, refusing to actively enforce patent and copyright infringements, and demanding that every foreign company operating in China have a Chinese partner to which it had to disclose its technological and trade secrets. Story continues below advertisement Trump's primary complaints against China in 2018–19 highlighted such practices. The Chinese regime did not change then, but as foreign money has begun to look elsewhere, the authorities in Beijing have changed their tune. In June, it added tax incentives of up to 10 percent for foreign operations that reinvest their profits in China. This change has become all too evident in the past few weeks. During this rather compressed period, Beijing has announced steps to protect foreign copyrights and patents. Then just last month, seven key agencies in Beijing—including the National Development and Reform Commission, the Ministry of Finance, and the People's Bank of China—jointly issued what they called a ' Notice on Implementing Several Measures to Encourage Reinvestment by Foreign-Invested Enterprises.' Each of the 'several measures' sounds extremely friendly to foreign investment and overseas-based businesses. The new rules now require local governments throughout China to track and support foreign investment and expand the definition of what qualifies for such considerations. These new rules try to reduce the cost of foreign developments by granting easier access to industrial land, leasing, lease-to-own arrangements, and adjustable-term land transfers. Story continues below advertisement Regulators have been ordered to simplify and expedite approvals for projects as well as those that qualify for the previously announced tax breaks and do so for a wide range of earnings, including gains from foreign exchange transactions. Beijing's new friendliness surely comes in response to the shortfall of foreign investment over the past couple of years. In part because of the Chinese regime's past abusive behavior, but also official hostility to China trade in Washington, the European Union, and Japan, foreign businesses have begun to look away from China. In 2023, China suffered a net outflow of foreign capital . In the first half of 2025, foreign investment was 15.2 percent below 2024's reduced level. Strong investment upticks have occurred in e-commerce services, pharmaceuticals, aerospace equipment, and the manufacture of medical devices, but not enough to offset the general decline. The economic drag from these shortfalls has been undeniable, not only in China's export volumes but also more generally. Beijing has estimated that over the long haul, foreign investment enterprises, as they are called, have contributed between 20 and 30 percent of China's gross domestic product, or GDP. Doubtless, recent major concessions will draw some positive response from business in the United States, Europe, Japan, and elsewhere. It is unlikely, however, that foreign business or investment in China will return to what it was when the country was the primary destination for foreign investors. Story continues below advertisement For one, businesspeople the world over have memories of past abuses and are aware that Beijing's friendly approach today could easily change back should circumstances allow. They are also aware that a robust response to today's inducements will raise their exposure to China and make them that much more vulnerable should Beijing change its mind. Business managers have also become aware in recent years that there are opportunities elsewhere in Asia and Latin America that are, by comparison, more secure than in China. They will no doubt respond with caution. Views expressed in this article are opinions of the author and do not necessarily reflect the views of The Epoch Times.

How Cas ruling might impact rest of Palace's transfer window

Crystal Palace will be counting the cost of their failed Cas appeal in seeking to overturn the club's demotion to the Conference League. From a purely sporting perspective, there is far less prestige in playing in the Conference League compared with the Europa League - the competition Palace believed they had qualified for having won last season's FA Cup. The counter argument is that Palace will stand a better chance of winning the Conference League. That may be the case, but that is not really the issue here. Palace feel this is a huge miscarriage of justice, irrespective of their chances of winning a European trophy next season seemingly improved. You also have to wonder how the decision may impact their plans between now and the close of the transfer window. It is estimated that their European demotion could cost the Eagles in the region of £20m, a relatively large amount given the size of the club. That may well now play a factor in attempting to sign their preferred targets and their leveraging power as they try to prevent key players from leaving. Marc Guehi and Eberechi Eze are among those courting interest from the Premier League's top sides. Guehi, who has less than a year left on his contract, is likely to be sold, with Liverpool among his suitors, while Eze has interest from Arsenal and Tottenham.
