UK's Manchester Central launches table service app

The UK’s Manchester Central has announced a partnership with a mobile app called Preoday. The app provides a digital ordering service, allowing guests at the venue to request table drinks and refreshments without the need for queuing at the bar. Shaun Hinds, chief executive at Manchester Central said: “We are thrilled to be working alongside Preoday to launch our new digital ordering service app. Our clients and visitors are always so complimentary about our hospitality offer but still we seek ways to further enhance our visitor experience. “In this fast-paced and connected world, people are using apps for everything, meaning its more important than ever for us to embrace technology to reflect changing consumer habits. One of the most significant benefits of this service is the flexibility; the app makes things even quicker and easier for our visitors, ensuring they get the most out of the event.” Nick Hucker, CEO, Preoday, adds: “Manchester Central was looking to achieve maximum efficiency in terms of its in-event drinks service, and we are thrilled to be a part of that. No one enjoys queuing at the bar when they can be socialising at their table, and now they won’t have to. The app provides total flexibility and scope to expand it even further and we’re glad to support them as they continue along the path of digital transformation.” Manchester Central is working with Preoday’s technology partners, Cunninghams and Optomany, which respectively provide its EPOS and payment processing solutions.
