Toast the cloud-based restaurant technology platform, today announced that Eclective Hospitality Group, Ireland’s largest hospitality group, has implemented Toast across its portfolio, highlighting Toast’s growing role as a trusted partner in Ireland as the company celebrates 3 years in market.
This new collaboration sees Toast’s technology platform deployed across 25 Eclective venues, including iconic brands like Angelina’s, Elephant and Castle and Wowburger.
Toast’s technology seamlessly connects every aspect of Irish hospitality businesses, from kitchen to customer. Eclective will utilise Toast technology to strengthen operational flexibility, provide greater ease of use and responsiveness, improve staff efficiency, and enhance the overall guest experience.
“As Ireland’s largest hospitality group employing 850 people across 27 venues, we need a technology partner that can scale with our ambitions while understanding the unique demands of running a restaurant in Ireland,” said Dave Mongan, COO at Eclective. “Toast eliminates the complexity of managing multiple systems across our portfolio. Toast gives us the tools that power service and allows us to focus on what matters most – creating exceptional experiences for our guests. This partnership positions us perfectly for our next phase of growth.”
“Delivering a great guest experience requires a restaurant to have exceptional tools and technology,” added Daniel Hanigan, Executive Chef at Angelina’s. “By leveraging technology like Toast’s Kitchen Display Systems to improve efficiency in the kitchen, our team will have more time to focus on creating exceptional food experiences.”
“Partnering with an ambitious, forward-looking organisation like Eclective represents a defining moment in Toast’s journey here in Ireland,” Ana Munoz, GM of International at Toast said.
“Working with a group of this scale and caliber is a testament to the depth and presence we’ve built in the local hospitality community over the past three years. We know that Irish restaurants want both great technology and a provider who truly understands them, and we’re the ideal choice for growing restaurant groups here and across our other international markets.”
Toast is the restaurant technology partner of choice for many of Ireland’s leading hospitality businesses, including Bewley’s, Kicky’s and OAKBERRY.
Toast’s presence in Ireland includes Customer Support, Research and Development, and Sales and Marketing teams in Ireland, and is recognised as a Certified Great Place to Work in Ireland.
Toast supports many Irish communities through Toast.org, the company’s philanthropic arm. Some of Toast.org’s programmes in Ireland over the last 3 years include a €50,000 donation to Airfield Estate for a new community garden that supports local food education. Toast.org’s continued community investment reflects Toast’s on-going commitment to supporting communities that make Irish hospitality thrive.
