HungerRush™, the leading point-of-sale (POS) software platform provider for quick-service and fast-casual restaurants, today announced that Ashland, Virginia-based Pepicelli’s Pizza, LLC, increased sales by 27% using HungerRush’s full portfolio of solutions to help streamline its restaurant management and market to its growing customer base.

In addition to using HungerRush’s POS, the restaurant also taps into HungerRush’s automated marketing, loyalty, rewards, delivery, and online ordering.

“One of the biggest challenges we ran into with our restaurant was navigating through the many POS systems on the market,” said Tom Checkosky, Owner and Operator of Pepicelli’s. “The promises made by so many did not at all align with the reality of what these other technology providers could offer our business. We needed a strong POS fit for pizza specifically, one that could handle highly complex menus and the nuances of food that travels—and only HungerRush was able to meet and exceed our restaurant needs.”

Since using HungerRush’s POS since October 2020, Pepicelli’s has recognized the following benefits:

· Increased total sales by 27%

· Increased online orders from 20% to 70%

· Lift in weekly orders by 24%

· 54% of sales can be attributed to marketing programs from HungerRush

“HungerRush solutions are built for speed and complexity, which is exactly what we needed at our restaurant,” said Larry Horsey, Director of Operations and Marketing of Pepicelli’s. “And their support is second to none. They are constantly communicating and improving for us. If we have a problem, they are there for us 100 percent on this journey. With HungerRush, we are simply unstoppable.”

Larry continued, “I’d sooner change the recipe of our pizza before I’d change a single thing about HungerRush’s solutions and support.”

“We are very proud of our deep expertise and technology solutions that can handle the unique factors associated with the pizza business – it is absolutely a sweet spot for us,” said Eran Hollander, Chief Product Officer of HungerRush. “Pepicelli’s is an example of that hard work paying off for one of our valued pizza customers.”
