Two Stoke-on-Trent companies have launched a new partnership to help drive growth in the hospitality sector.
International brand Foodhub is teaming up with Fifteen Group, in a partnership designed to help both brands drive their sales.
Foodhub is one of the fastest-growing technology providers in hospitality and leisure, providing hardware and software for restaurants, stadia, venues, hotels, transport and leisure parks across three continents. UK consumers will also know Foodhub for its marketplace takeaway app, which has more than 1 million engaged users and is rapidly growing orders by 10% year on year.
Fifteen Group specialises in delivering IT, communications, software development, digital signage and fire and security systems to quick service restaurants and gyms across the UK. The brands they work with include Taco Bell, Costa and KFC.
Both operating in the same space, the two businesses have signed an arrangement which will mean Fifteen partners have access to Foodhub technology as well as listings on its app.
Fifteen Group Director Rob Adams said: “Working with a Stoke-on-Trent-based business which has a global reach was too good an opportunity to miss. We operate in the same space and by collaborating more closely we can cross-refer to each other’s brands to help drive sales.
He added: “Foodhub is now offering our partners the ability to list their stores on their app, to help generate more orders for each store, which can only be a good thing for businesses.”
David McGuinness, Vice President of Global Growth and Business Development, said: “It’s great to be working with Fifteen Group. Essentially, we will supplement each other’s tech stack. They will help introduce their clients to the Foodhub app, where brands like Tacobell can list their menus to drive up orders as well as the tech for fitouts. This partnership between a quick service restaurant (QSR) and takeaway specialist and a market-leading kitchen facility provider for QSR/takeaways makes a great combination.”
