GIVEX CORP. PLAYS INTEGRAL ROLE IN NATIONAL KITCHEN TECH UPGRADE FOR KFC CANADA

Givex Corp. long-time client KFC Canada has completed a national kitchen technology upgrade across 402 stores implemented to improve the guest experience across all digital platforms. This upgrade is part of KFC Canada's long-term strategic initiative to leverage technology to meet evolving customer expectations in the ultracompetitive QSR (quick-service restaurant) space.

To support this upgrade, Givex partnered with Lenovo Canada and KFC Canada's internal application team to integrate the solution into the stores' existing IT (information technology) infrastructure. Going forward, Givex will support the hardware platform as part of its continuing service agreements with the KFC franchisee group.

"This announcement showcases Givex's evolution as a national enterprise-level service provider," said John Beaton, president of Kalex Equipment Services, which was acquired by Givex in 2022. "Givex's acquisition strategy is now delivering the synergies which will not only expand the services we provide to our existing clients but also provide the platform to deliver Givex services and products to an exponentially broader client base."

With 12 global offices and a footprint of more than 128,000 active merchant locations, Givex offers gift cards, a point-of-sale system (GivexPOS), loyalty programs, enterprise services, GivexPay and more.
