SYRACUSE, NY (April 2, 2024) — BeerBoard, the leader in technology solutions and alcohol management for the on-premise hospitality industry, announced today that Chicken N Pickle has signed as its newest retail partner.
This collaboration will provide Chicken N Pickle with premier alcohol management technology to drive operational efficiency and improved revenue.
Chicken N Pickle has 10 locations across Missouri, Kansas, Oklahoma, Texas and Arizona, with plans for an additional six locations through 2024 and 2025. It is a unique, indoor/outdoor family entertainment complex that includes a casual, chef-driven restaurant and sports bar, pickleball courts and professional instruction, space for live entertainment, a variety of yard games and space to lounge outdoors with (or without) your dog.
BeerBoard’s innovative platform offers comprehensive tools for perpetual inventory, integrated ordering with all alcohol distributors, and sales analytics. As a result, Chicken N Pickle is elevating its alcohol management efficiency to drive improved revenue and profitability. The technology empowers Chicken N Pickle to reduce errors and manual labor, and use timely insights to make better decisions to optimize bar performance.
Joe Palermo, Vice President of Operations at Chicken N Pickle, expressed his excitement about the partnership, stating, “Harnessing BeerBoard’s cutting-edge technology, Chicken N Pickle can enhance our alcohol management capabilities and improve operational efficiency. We now have clear insights on usage and variance, and our managers are more efficient when reviewing on-hand inventory and ordering product.
“BeerBoard’s technology helps us across the board from a holistic overview — how staff are performing, how our hardware systems are performing and movement of brands,” continued Palermo. “As a result, we have lowered our bar cost-of-goods-sold by 2.5-3.5%. This technology essentially paid for itself in our first month of use.”
“We are thrilled to partner with Chicken N Pickle to help enhance their alcohol management and operational efficiency,” said Tom Young, Vice President of Client Relations for BeerBoard. “Our technology is designed to empower operators like Chicken N Pickle with the tools they need to succeed in today’s competitive landscape. As a fast-growing concept, Chicken N Pickle can unlock new opportunities for revenue growth, while continuing to deliver their exceptional guest experience.”
