The Southwest Food Expo was once again in Houston this year. The Focus dealers from Texas were on hand to help the attendees with questions and demos of the software. The Southwest Food Expo is usually a great show and this year was no exception. We had great feedback from not only new and existing customers but our dealers provided us with outstanding ideas for new features!

Focus was well represented at the 2008 National Restaurant Show. Focus dealers across the nation were present to help answer questions at this huge event. We would like to thank a few of our dealers including Restaurant Computer Solutions, Advanced Restaurant Technologies, Orbit POS Systems, Alpha P.O.S. Services, Gulf Data Systems, Creative Technology Services Group, Integrated Solutions and Fehr Point Solutions that helped make this show a great success.

Mike Hamm and Steve Wermes of Focus POS Systems joined Jeff and Maryellen Korn of Advanced Restaurant Technologies (ART POS) at Coffee Fest 2007 in Seattle, WA. Booth traffic was great and many questions were answered.

One of ART POS’ Focus users, Forza Coffee, gave a presentation at the show and discussed how Focus has improved and streamlined operations within his restaurant. Everyone had a great show and we would like to thank Brad of Forza for the kind words!

Focus POS Systems held this year’s Annual Dealer Conference in the great city of San Antonio, Texas. This was the first time many of our dealers have traveled to Texas and we were excited to show them around this historic city. Some of the after hour dealer activities included a tour of the Alamo and a Riverwalk boat cruise.

Steve Wermes, long time employee of Focus POS, was awarded with the Focus POS Systems Lifetime Achievement Award. Thanks Steve, for all of your hard work and congratulations!
 

In addition to entertaining the dealers, we were able to show them some of the new and exciting features of Focus as well as what is in store for the future. We would like to thank our dealers for taking the time to travel to Texas to attend our annual conference. See y’all next year!

The Baltimore Convention Center was the center of attention for restaurant owners, managers and suppliers at this year’s Mid-Atlantic Food, Beverage, & Lodging Expo. Louie Davis and Joe Oyler of Creative Technology Services Group (CTSG) worked the show along with Matt Kowaleski of Focus POS. We had a great turnout again this year and look forward to it again next year!

Raven’s Stadium shared the same parking lot of the Convention Center but unfortunately no football games were scheduled while we were in town!
