Taco John's updates POS, loyalty systems across 21 states

Taco John's has completed the deployment of a cloud-based technology platform across its 324 locations to manage point-of-sale systems, digital ordering and loyalty programs, according to a press release.

The transition is intended to allow for faster updates to limited-time offers and pricing across both digital and in-restaurant channels. The QSR brand said the system also integrates back-of-house operations to improve visibility into restaurant performance.

"As we continue to enhance the Taco John's experience, simplicity and consistency have been critical drivers of both guest and franchisee satisfaction," Tom Perella, vice president of technology at Taco John's, said in the release. "Our unified platform allows us to reduce complexity, accelerate updates, and improve visibility into restaurant performance. That translates into improved order accuracy, more intuitive workflows, and ultimately a better experience for both our teams and our guests."

The company is using pilot programs to test future updates, including data analytics and workflow optimization, before implementing them across the network.

"Our technology strategy is all about building smarter, more efficient operations," Perella said. "Every investment we make is focused on building solutions that are both practical and innovative to support sustainable, confident growth."

Based in Cheyenne, the Mexican quick-service chain operates in 21 states. The company indicated it is targeting expansion in the Upper Midwest and Rocky Mountain regions.
