FTWCR is investigating the opportunity to expand its EPOS system on-board its trains and in First Class Lounges. FTWCR's vision for EPOS is that our solution will enable the business to optimise retail revenue, while delivering an excellent customer experience. The Food and Beverage Proposition will be delivered efficiently across all customers and classes on their journey, from the catering selection of products to customer consumption in FC Lounges and On-Board. The objective is to improve customer experience, support with operational process and colleague efficiency, and to make better use of data to improve business decision making.
