MONTREAL--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Kernels, the only Canadian retail chain of gourmet specialty popcorn stores, has officially relaunched its customer loyalty program using the DataCandy technology platform. Forget the shop talk, at Kernels it’s all about POP-talk. Since 1983 Kernels Popcorn has been making a sensational range of flavors for the ideal snack time. With more than 85 stores across Canada, Kernels is committed to uncompromising quality and a-maize-ing taste. With popcorn for every personality, whether salty or sweet, spicy or cheesy, decadent or low fat, you’re sure to find a flavor as unique as you are. Embrace the POPabilities.
With DataCandy powering its Perks loyalty program, Kernels has simplified the collection and management of data generated by loyalty members. The seamless integration between DataCandy and Kernels’ existing Vivonet POS system has created a real-time flow of data formatted in visual dashboards and reports. For the first time, analyzing promotions and outcomes from National Popcorn Day promotions are quick and easy.
“There is no comparison, the DataCandy loyalty platform is a superior technology and therefore a better program to what we previously deployed. After all, Perks for us is MORE than just a thank you,” says Eli Staiman, President & CEO of Kernels Popcorn. “The DataCandy system is so much easier to manage, and since the relaunch, customers are more engaged and apt to register their own profile as fans of our brand. I see why DataCandy has such an impressive track-record within the Canadian loyalty space, and we are truly excited to work with their teams to benefit our own fans!”
