LOS ALAMITOS, Calif. – May 5, 2026 – Recognizing restaurants’ need for more efficient in-house operations to enhance guest experiences and maintain a competitive edge, Epson today announced plans to showcase its hospitality technology solutions designed to address these challenges at the National Restaurant Association Show. Built for performance and reliability, Epson’s comprehensive portfolio of point-of-sale (POS), kitchen display system (KDS) and labeling solutions help restaurants streamline front- and back-of-house operations to improve order accuracy, staff communication workflows and modernize their environments. Epson’s technology solutions will be on display from May 16-19 at the McCormick Place in Chicago in booth #6861.
“As customer expectations for speed, order accuracy and seamless service continue to rise, restauranteurs are under increasing pressure to do more with less,” said Ian Livesay, product manager, Business Systems Division, Epson America. “Meeting these demands require fast, connected systems to keep kitchens running smoothly and enable foodservice professionals to operate with flexibility. Attendees will see firsthand how Epson’s innovative POS, KDS and labeling solutions drive restaurant performance to reduce errors, improve communication and support future growth.”
Epson invites National Restaurant Association Show attendees to explore the following featured innovations at its booth:
- Streamlined Order Management: Affordable and intuitive, TrueOrder™ KDS keeps service running smoothly in high-volume restaurants, from food preparation to order completion and timely pickup or delivery. Attendees are invited to enjoy complimentary made-to-order coffee beverages at the Epson booth while experiencing firsthand how a KDS integrated with an interactive kiosk (featuring an Epson receipt printer) and solutions from MicroTouch, Elo, Logic Controls, and Kitchen Armor, can optimize the order fulfillment process.
