Avero

New York and Los Angeles, | The Peninsula Beverly Hills is the only hotel in Southern California to earn both the AAA Five Diamond and Mobil Five Star awards for twelve consecutive years. Now, with the installation of Avero Slingshot in its luxurious Belvedere Restaurant, this sought-after culinary destination will take restaurant revenue management to a whole new level.

Avero’s award-winning business intelligence software was installed in tandem with a significant upgrade to the Belvedere Restaurant’s point-of-sale (POS) system. Avero Slingshot users realize almost immediate returns by converting their POS data into enhanced business intelligence such as the ability to track server productivity and timely feedback on which wines, spirits and menu items are selling. This knowledge enables quick proactive decisions that not only result in margin improvement, but can also help an operation better train its staff, adjust menus according to customer preferences, and streamline ordering and staff scheduling.

“The Belvedere is one of the city’s favorite dining spots, combining modern American cuisine with a timeless, sophisticated service standard that relies on proven hospitality technology,” says Bill Bracken, Executive Food and Beverage Director at The Peninsula Beverly Hills. “Avero’s business intelligence software will ensure that we get the best return on investment for our POS.”

“Our clients have found that with Avero Slingshot, they can use their POS data to garner much more profitable results,” adds Damian Mogavero, CEO of Avero, Inc. “We convert raw data into business intelligence that would otherwise not be available to them. We look forward to working with The Peninsula Beverly Hills to help them best leverage their POS investment and accomplish their management goals more quickly and cost-effectively.”
