Pfaltzgraff Kiosk Provides ‘Virtual Inventory’
Pfaltzgraff, a leading manufacturer of casual dinnerware and accessories offers a large number of patterns, each with a varying number of pieces. One of Pfaltzgraff'’s goals is to offer consumers the most complete line of accessories for its dinnerware patterns. The Company wanted a kiosk to provide a tool to store staff that would allow them to easily help customers browse through the myriads of patterns. Pfaltzgraff also wanted the ability to access their Web-based gift registry system from the kiosk.
Livewire, a York, PA, based kiosk manufacturer, implemented a hybrid online kiosk application that leveraged Pfaltzgraff's existing web site to provide “virtual inventory” ordering capability to customers and salespeople in the stores. This virtual inventory system ensures that a customer will never be turned away from a purchase because their item is not in stock.
