Launched in early 2021, 365 Retail Markets’ Pico Platform is the company’s innovative retail technology platform. It is versatile enough to scale for both location needs and consumer volume, accommodates products ranging from the ever-dependable snack cracker to fresh food and beverages. The Pico Platform provides point-of-sale (POS) solutions for operators offering vending, micro markets and office coffee service (OCS). This platform also provides the flexibility to expand existing market capacity or leverage its compact nature to add market capability to an otherwise small environment such as a breakroom. Various key products compose the Pico Platform:
