Here’s 10, that this month we’d like to share with you! The Tevalis teams are always deploying our technology into exciting new venues, from independent restaurants through to multi-site operators and everything in between. Therefore, every month, we’ll be keeping you updated!New features and functionalities are always being developed into our technology solutions at Tevalis. Therefore, every month we’ll be keeping you updated with the top 10.1. San CarloThe award winning San Carlo group has become a popular and very busy empire across the UK, with a number of sites appearing overseas as well as the UK.
Praised by many as the ‘best Italian restaurants’ that the industry has to offer, the team across the group use exceptional ingredients to achieve and maintain that standard. In true Italian style, San Carlo use the finest and freshest seasonal ingredients, of which many are flown in from produce markets across Italy to ensure authenticity runs throughout the restaurants.
With that, we’re extremely proud to be supporting the team with our technology at the newest site on Regent Street, London. Initially, head office were looking for a comprehensive Stock Management system to add to their existing technology suite. However, after meeting with Tevalis, they decided to deploy further technology for a fully consolidated and connected approach, where we’ve now implemented Stock Management as their primary requirement alongside a new bespoke Epos system. The start of a fantastic partnership!2. Japan HouseWe’re extremely excited to announce that we’re the technology partners for the new cultural home of Japan in London, Japan House!
Now open to the public, guests can expect to be presented with the very best of Japanese art, design, gastronomy, innovation and technology. This unique venue can be found in Kensington High Street, however as it’s part of a global initiative led by Japanese Ministry of Foreign Affairs, they also hold two other Japan Houses in Los Angeles and Sao Paulo.
The site is broken down into three core areas across three floors, which includes a retail area selling Japanese products, an art exhibition and a fine dining Japanese restaurant. To assist the teams across these floors, they required a tailored set up suitable for each area. Key deliverable aspects included having Japanese language across the Pos, ensuring their aesthetic standards met from a hardware perspective and due to tapas style dining, a delay when printing to the kitchen.
Through careful planning with our project team, the team now have their full technology requirements met. This includes bespoke Epos, handheld ordering and three of our cloud-based enterprise modules, Business Reporting, Stock Management and Centralised Management.3. Red Funnel FerriesHop on board with Red Funnel Ferries, providing award winning Isle of Wight ferry travel. Red Funnel is the ‘Original Isle of Wight ferry operator’ and currently carries over three million passengers a year!
So, why did Red Funnel require new technology from Tevalis?
Epos was needed to support the FnB teams in the lounge’s before passengers board the ferry. A core requirement was ensuring speed of service was of the upmost priority. Now, they have over 24 terminals to assist the team, paired with our handheld ordering solution so orders can be taken quickly and efficiently for all passengers before boarding.
Alongside this, our technology is also being utilised across the Red Funnel warehouses, so they can easily manage all of their stock with one seamless system. Specifically for this project, we also integrated with their Customer Relationship Management system, syncing it with our own CRM module for a consolidated offering which consists of maximum functionality. Another fantastic partnership we’re proud to be a part of, also showing how Tevalis technology can offer the flexibility needed to meet our client’s specific requirements.4. The Bay Fish and ChipsBased in Stonehaven in Scotland, The Bay Fish and Chips is an award-winning venue within it’s sector. Due to the nature and environment of the business, the teams required a quick service set up with the ability to add promotions and edit their products with ease.
Alongside this, gaining transparency into their business across multiple areas with intelligent reporting facilities and having the ability to manage their stock, was essential.

At the heart of the venue, is a unique and relaxed dining experience and we’re pleased to be assisting them further to enhance that experience, with our Epos technology!
Why were Go-Go’s looking for a new Epos system?
Initially, the team had a system which didn’t fulfil their entire requirements from an efficiency perspective. Management were spending hours configuring the system to make new changes when required. Therefore, their core requirement when searching the market for a new Epos platform, was to have an easy to use yet intuitive solution. After their search, the team selected Tevalis as their technology partner.

The growing artisan pizza restaurants were initially created due to the team’s genuine passion for good food and craving for true pizza “Versace” from Naples.
