Benihana
A national restaurant program that stayed operationally light while producing millions of branded memories.
Benihana National Corp.
Since 2009, PhotoTouch has helped Benihana National Corp., the nation’s largest chain of Japanese and sushi restaurants, offer photo memories to their guests.
Beginning in 2009, the program was installed in Benihana and Samurai locations nationwide.
A branded photo that drives online engagement
The PhotoTouch branded photo solution is used to offer guests a branded, high-quality print that also drives them online to share and download digital photos.
The workflow is designed to stay out of the dining experience while still delivering a premium keepsake.
Simple execution for real-world staffing
Team members capture a photo at the table using a camera, which is transmitted to a station in the venue.
The system automatically applies the overlay, generates the guest credentials, prints on-site, and uploads to a branded microsite for viewing, downloading, emailing, and sharing.
A program that holds up in the field
- Installed in over 75 locations across the United States.
- More than 11 million personal photo memories created.
- More than 5 million people have visited the microsite to view, download, email, and share photos.
Scale that is easy to operate.
The point is simple: guests get a keepsake, the brand gets reach, and staff effort stays light.
The best part of the branded photo solution is that it gives guests something they naturally want to share, while keeping the operation predictable for the venue.
