Challenges faced

Due to the reporting limitations within POS systems, Trader House lacked a unified repository of all their POS data across their multiple venues. This lack of information created additional challenges, such as (1) the need to use raw data extracts that had been manually extracted and manipulated and (2) consolidating that data from multiple access points was time-consuming.

To provide better-quality and more comprehensive business insights from its POS data, Trader House needed a reporting solution that could centralize all its data, increase the accuracy and dependability of the daily updated data, and automate reporting.

Solution outcomes

According to Kate, Zap Data Hub has had a profound impact to their business — and it has only been implemented for six months. By streamlining the collection of data from their venues into Zap Data hub’s consolidated SaaS platform they’ve fundamentally reshaped their operational framework with timely, consistent, and actionable insights.

Zap has given us the ability to take a step back and think about what information our people need — and build a tailored reporting environment to deliver this. Zap has made the data collection and collation process smoother, easier, and more accurate.
