Vitality Bowls, a Northern California-born cafe serving nutritious and allergy-friendly acai bowls, smoothies and wraps, is partneing with Stream, an automated software service, to help streamline online ordering and menu updates across POS systems, third-party delivery and other integrated systems.

"We couldn't be more thrilled to reinvigorate our online ordering systems with Stream," Tara Gilad, co-founder and president of Vitality Bowls, said in a company press release. "With 70 brick-and-mortar Vitality Bowls cafés and 70 ghost kitchens for our virtual brand, Harvest Kitchen, we knew that Stream was the best option for us as we looked toward the next step of our growth and evolution. We are confident that the simplified multi-location menu management will enhance the online ordering and third-party delivery experiences for our franchisees."

From managing third-party orders to overseeing multiple menus and prices, Stream simplifies the process with smooth onboarding and an easy-to-use solution, said Marc Marras, co-founder and head of Product for Stream

"At Stream, we design our products with simplicity in mind, so even complex tasks like integrating your POS with third-party platforms don't come with a steep learning curve or a frustrating experience," he said in the release. "It's designed so you can hand the product to your franchisees, managers or team members, and they'll be able to jump right in and get started.

"We put this to the test with Vitality Bowls, a brand managing a complicated menu structure across 70 locations, each handled by over 40 different franchisees, all of whom also run a Virtual Brand (Harvest Kitchen). By providing a few easy-to-follow guides and a quick demo, their franchisees and corporate team were able to roll out Stream across all their locations."
