Garden Fresh to deploy Envysion surveillance system

March 20, 2011

Envysion Inc. has announced that Garden Fresh Restaurant Corp. has selected Envysion as its exclusive video surveillance provider and is deploying Envysion Insight in an initial set of locations. Garden Fresh Restaurant Corp., the operator of 120 restaurants under the Souplantation and Sweet Tomatoes brands, will use Envysion's point of sale (POS) integrated video surveillance to scale the capabilities of their loss prevention department and leverage business insights to improve operational performance.

"The Envysion Insight solution allows me to view video and integrated exception reporting of our restaurants, so I can increase my loss prevention effectiveness and efficiency through remote site auditing and investigating potential fraud or theft," said Jamie Knight, director of asset protection for Garden Fresh. "Within three months we realized a material improvement in gross profit. Assuming we see those results as we roll out the Envysion solution across our locations, the impact could add up to millions of dollars per year."

In addition to the customary benefits of video surveillance – increased security and reduced loss from vandalism, theft and unfounded liability claims – Envysion Insight automatically tracks potentially fraudulent transactions such as voids, returns, discounts and coupons. Through Insight Marketplace, a revolutionary new approach to managed video, customers can extend the impact of Envysion Insight with a variety of loss prevention services delivered by expert, third party partners.
