Panda Restaurant Group Implements NCR Point-of-Sale System

Leading Asian quick-service chain chooses NCR RealPOS

May 1, 2006, ATLANTA – Panda Restaurant Group, the world’s leader in Asian quick-service restaurants, is implementing a point-of-sale (POS) solution from NCR Corporation (NYSE:NCR) at its Panda Express and Hibachi San restaurants throughout the United States and Puerto Rico.

NCR RealPOS 70 terminals are being installed at all new Panda Express and Hibachi San locations, and retrofitted in existing stores as necessary. Plans call for deployment at approximately 170 new stores, and retrofits at 65 existing stores, this year. The solution includes NCR RealPOS terminals, thermal receipt printers and cash drawers.

“In the highly-competitive quick-serve industry, an efficient point-of-sale solution is crucial to staying on top,” said William Yu, vice president of information systems, Panda Restaurant Group. “NCR’s superior hardware and support infrastructure improves our overall efficiency by enabling faster service and significant customer throughput.”

Drawing on 120 years of POS experience in the hospitality environment, the NCR RealPOS 70 allows for quick, onsite changes that provide best-in-class terminal availability. The system is also designed for efficient upgrades, providing long-term investment protection as business needs change.

“Panda Restaurant Group needed a POS solution that could keep pace with its growing, global footprint,” said Tracy Flynn, vice president, NCR Hospitality Sales. “NCR RealPOS offers a hospitality-hardened design that can support the company’s growth while accommodating the unique demands of the quick-serve environment.”
