Kum & Go partners with NCR

December 14, 2011

NCR Corp. announced it will implement its Radiant c-store technology in each of Kum & Go's 400-plus stores. The chain, which is the fifth largest privately-held, company-operated convenience store chain in the United States, chose the Radiant solution to manage a wide range of its business operations from one system, including fuel island, foodservice and multichannel marketing initiatives, according to an NCR press release.

The full breadth of the solution includes point-of-sale software and hardware terminals, fuel controllers and electronic payment controllers. The integration of the solution will enable Kum & Go to deliver an exceptional customer experience, helping the company to connect with consumers both inside and outside the store, Craig Bergstrom, chief financial officer, Kum & Go, said in the release.

"We were looking for a technology solution that could easily scale with us and support future growth initiatives," he said. "NCR was able to meet our needs and provides a strong, feature-rich technology that decreases our overall technology costs."

NCR acquired Radiant Systems Inc. in August 2011, and now has more than 100,000 installations in hospitality and specialty retail industries.
