• Uniguest expands kiosk division partnering with Showcase Technology

0 Comments
NASHVILLE, Tenn.-based Uniguest, a provider of print, technology and specialized services globally for the lodging, restaurant and healthcare industries, announced today the continuing expansion of its kiosk division, with the purchase of Showcase Technology's U.S. hotel business center customers.
 
Uniguest's kiosk division provides security software protection, ongoing IT help desk support and general kiosk management for approximately 3,000 global hotel customers and more than 5,000 computer workstations. The acquisition will add close to 350 U.S. locations and 600 computer workstations.
 
"Uniguest and Showcase have followed very similar paths over the last decade," said Shawn Thomas, CEO and co-founder of Uniguest. "As competitors, we started about the same time, both offering secure products for the hospitality industry and commitments to our customers. We are excited about the acquisition and all of its future possibilities. I would expect many new developments, both in technology and future business deals, between the two companies."
 
"Working with Uniguest has been a great experience," Showcase Technology chairman and CEO Paul Rajewski said. "Although we will continue to maintain our kiosks in Canada and at the Waldorf and Fairmont properties, the acquisition allows us to concentrate developing technology and providing solutions to complex problems for the hospitality industry."
 
As part of the acquisition, Uniguest will become a reseller of Showcase's NetStop kiosk software and license Showcase's proprietary database management software for kiosks.
 
Uniguest will showcase its technology products and services at HITEC 2010 in Orlando, Fla., June 21-24.
