Insights
The partnership between Dover Fueling Solutions (DFS) and FLYX to introduce the DFS Order Kiosk in the EMEA region is a noteworthy development in retail technology. This new solution aims to enhance the efficiency of c-stores at fuel stations with its versatile installation options and advanced software capabilities. The integration with Prizma, DFS's connected mobility hub, suggests significant improvements in operational efficiency by centralizing and streamlining various services. The ability to apply cross-selling and up-selling techniques through any device underlines the flexibility and modernity of the system. However, for retail investors, it's important to consider that the actual adaptation and implementation of such technology may face regional and logistical challenges, which could impact the pace of its market penetration.
This partnership is a strategic move by DFS to differentiate itself in the competitive EMEA fuel retail market. The emphasis on enhancing consumer experience and reducing operational costs can attract more retailers to adopt the DFS Order Kiosk. Given the growing trend of fuel stations expanding their food and beverage offerings, the timing of this product launch is opportune. Retail investors should look at how quickly and effectively DFS can scale this solution across the region, as this will directly influence its impact on DFS's market share and revenue growth. The kiosk’s potential to streamline operations and increase profit margins are positive indicators, but long-term success will depend on broader market acceptance and customer adoption rates.
In collaboration with FLYX, DFS will provide EMEA fuel retailers with a flexible and innovative product for their c-stores, which can help differentiate their station from the competition. In addition to improving the overall consumer experience of both new and existing motorists, the DFS Order Kiosk can provide retailers with a unique competitive advantage and additional opportunities to increase profit margins.
The DFS Order Kiosk offers retailers many choices to suit varying c-store layouts. It can be wall-mounted, stand-alone, or secured on a countertop to overcome potential space concerns and limitations. Additional options are also available during the software ordering process, as retailers can apply cross-selling and up-selling techniques – whether to promote the c-store latest offers or support loyalty programs – through any device, anywhere.
With the FLYX partnership, the DFS Order Kiosk can be fully integrated with Prizma, DFS's connected mobility and convenience hub, to help ensure that c-store operations can be streamlined to increase site efficiencies.
"Our partnership with FLYX is an important milestone in bringing the food ordering and fuel retail market together. The connected plug-and-play solution combines the best of both worlds, offering stability and flexibility at the same time," said Jenthe Govaerts, Product Manager at DFS.
"Food and drinks have become an important revenue generator for petrol stations, hence a lot more stations now offer breakfast, lunch and dinner options. The DFS Order Kiosk powered by FLYX will help increase sales, decrease wait times, and most importantly, reduce the number of required operators at the station," added Kurt Dillen, VP & GM, Commercial, EMEA & SAIL Regions at DFS.
"FLYX is thrilled to assist the fuel retail industry in innovating and bringing a new digital experience to their customers and staff through our collaboration with DFS. The DFS Order Kiosk powered by FLYX represents a groundbreaking advancement in retail technology, enabling businesses to serve their customers more efficiently while enhancing profitability. This alliance reinforces our commitment to incorporate leading-edge technology into everyday customer engagements, thereby redefining industry standards," stated John Van Lierde, CEO of FLYX.
