About the partnership:
Cinemark and Otter began their relationship in March 2023 to build a stable infrastructure for the future of the exhibitor’s concessions delivery offering, and Otter boasts top-of-the-line POS integration capabilities and accessible pricing. Today, Cinemark utilizes Otter’s Order Management solution, which is an order aggregation tool that helps businesses manage all delivery orders, update menus across channels from one place, and auto-accept orders with ease. Cinemark’s Order Manager is also synced with the chain’s custom POS system, so that all orders are automatically printed for easy fulfillment. And, with help from Otter’s holistic Analytics solution, Cinemark is able to make strategic decisions rooted in data.
Since partnering with Otter, Cinemark has seen an increase in storefront uptime, a decline in cancelled orders, and an expansion in overall orders.
“Cinemark knows that customers love our concessions - whether they are enjoying them in one of our larger-than-life auditoriums or at home, and Otter has helped us deliver the best possible guest experience when it comes to cinematic snack delivery,” said David Haywood, Cinemark SVP of Food & Beverage. “Our theater teams appreciate all Otter has to offer and its ability to streamline our third-party delivery process, which has resulted in order increases and productivity growth.”
“It’s been a pleasure to partner with Cinemark in building out the future of concessions delivery. Cinemark’s commitment to innovation is inspiring, and we’re proud to be the technology partner that powers their multi-channel delivery business.”
– Christine Norton, Otter Head of Sales
