Background

Simmons Bar was founded in 2013 and is known as one of the best party bars in London. They have 26 locations throughout London including Oxford Street, Leicester Square and Kings Cross and employ over 450 people throughout London.

Simmons Bar and pointOne have been working together for over 10 years since the business was founded and over the years the relationship has grown from strength to strength.

“We’ve always used pointOne in Simmons, loyalty is quite important to us, so having a company that we can have that relationship with over such a long time is important to us.”

Sean Peterson, Area Manager

The Solution

Sean from Simmons Bar states “On a day-to-day basis it allows us to report and track all our product usage and then also feed that back into our stock taking information which is a really important control for our business.

Simmons Bar has a range of pointOne solutions throughout all 25 venues, as they’ve grown and launched new venues pointOne has ensure the software and hardware are ready to be used from day one.

The two features supplied through pointOne EPoS solutions that are important to Simmons Bar are the head office module and the best seller’s page. The head office module allows them to see an overall view of all 25 location whilst being able to report and analyse each venue and the whole portfolio. The best sellers page allows staff to simply access their top products they sell every day, quickly and efficiently.

Sean states, “We have people that we know by name that we can speak to, Mike, Brandon, and the whole team, they are all very helpful and they always do their best to try and make sure that they’re providing us with the support that we need.”

“pointOne just being able to come in with our networking provider, put the network into the venue and having the tills up and running from day one along with our stock software is a really important part of making sure we have a successful launch.”
