Sushi Sushi is one of Australia’s largest sushi chains, boasting 170 stores nationwide. The company is committed to providing high-quality sushi experiences, using authentic Japanese ingredients to create exquisite, healthy dishes. As the chain of stores continues to expand, Sushi Sushi has maintained a consistent brand image and high food quality standards.
ZKONG, in collaboration with its partner e-Label (Electronic Label Pty Ltd), deployed over 10,000 Blade series ESL across 170+ Sushi Sushi stores, achieving fully automated price updates and customization for all store products.
Challenges Faced
As Sushi Sushi expanded its operations nationwide, the company encountered several key challenges:
Uniform Pricing and Product Information
Maintaining consistent price and product information across 170 stores was a major hurdle. Price adjustments needed to be in real-time, accurate, and adaptable to different regional pricing strategies.
Food Safety and Allergen Display
Australia’s strict regulations on food safety, particularly regarding the display of allergen information, required Sushi Sushi to clearly and accurately communicate allergen data for each product, despite limited display space.
Space and Aesthetic Requirements
The limited display space at sushi counters necessitated price labels that not only fit within the space constraints but also matched the brand’s premium image, ensuring a clean and elegant look.
ZKONG’s Solution
To address these challenges, ZKONG, in close collaboration with its Australian distributor e-Label, provided a customized solution for Sushi Sushi.
ZKONG and e-Label deployed 10,000+ units of ZKONG’s 2.7-inch Blade series ESLs across Sushi Sushi’s 170 stores. These ultra-thin, sleek, and elegant labels aligned perfectly with Sushi Sushi’s premium brand image.
In response to Sushi Sushi’s specific needs, ZKONG and e-Label developed specialized accessories to ensure the ESLs fit seamlessly into the compact food display counters.
Moreover, ZKONG’s software template editor enabled Sushi Sushi to automatically identify and display the allergen information required for each product. The system analyzes the product ingredients and generates the corresponding food energy and allergen warnings, ensuring customers at all stores can easily access critical product information.
