SpotOn, a leading restaurant technology and financial services provider, has announced the opening of its new Hawaiʻi showroom, marking a significant milestone in the company’s continued investment in the state’s restaurant and hospitality industry. Located at KEAWE Retail in Our Kakaʻako, Honolulu, the new facility provides restaurant owners, operators, and hospitality professionals with a dedicated space to experience SpotOn’s technology through hands-on demonstrations and real-world operating scenarios.
Designed as an interactive technology hub, the showroom allows hospitality businesses to explore how modern restaurant technology can improve daily operations, enhance customer experiences, and support long-term business growth. Rather than simply showcasing products, the space creates an environment where operators can see, test, and understand how SpotOn’s solutions work in actual restaurant settings.
The showroom reflects the company’s focus on creating stronger connections with the businesses it serves. Featuring live bar and restaurant environments, a complete product display wall, and fully operational point-of-sale systems, the facility gives visitors the opportunity to experience SpotOn’s complete technology ecosystem. Restaurant operators can explore solutions including point-of-sale terminals, handheld devices, self-service kiosks, and software platforms designed to manage different aspects of restaurant operations.
Among the technology solutions available for demonstration are SpotOn’s Teamwork platform, Reservations system, labor management tools, online ordering capabilities, and Profit Assist solutions. These integrated tools are designed to help restaurants improve efficiency, manage staffing challenges, increase revenue opportunities, and make better business decisions through data-driven insights.
Beyond serving as a demonstration facility, the Hawaiʻi showroom will also function as a dedicated onboarding, implementation, and training center for new SpotOn customers. Restaurant teams preparing to transition to SpotOn technology will have access to hands-on training sessions before launching their systems, helping employees and managers become comfortable with the platform and ensuring a smoother implementation process.
The showroom opening represents a broader expansion of SpotOn’s presence in Hawaiʻi. Over recent years, the company has developed relationships with restaurant entrepreneurs and hospitality operators throughout the islands, building a reputation for providing technology solutions combined with personalized local support.
“Six years ago, we first began connecting with Hawai‘i’s entrepreneurs,” said Chris Lombardi, Senior Vice President of Sales. “Now, we’re truly local and on the ground, supporting hundreds of island restaurants with a team that shows up and cares as much about their success as they do. Opening our new Hawai‘i office brings the journey full circle, giving restaurateurs real-time support with one simple goal: help every restaurant thrive, just like we’ve done from day one.”
As part of its commitment to the market, SpotOn is expanding its local Hawaiʻi team to provide restaurant operators with comprehensive support services. These include system implementation, employee training, hardware installation, onboarding assistance, and ongoing customer service tailored to the unique challenges faced by businesses operating across the Hawaiian Islands.
SpotOn Chief Executive Officer Zach Hyman emphasized that the company’s approach goes beyond providing technology alone. According to Hyman, restaurant operators need reliable partners who understand their businesses and remain connected to their communities.
“Technology is powerful, but restaurant operators also need partners who show up, understand their business, and are invested in their local community,” said Hyman. “Opening a physical space in Hawaiʻi is our way of putting down roots and making it clear that we’re here to support Hawaiʻi restaurants for the long term. Hawaiʻi is the first market where we’ve introduced this showroom concept, and our plan is to keep showing up in person in the communities we serve.”
Strategically located within Honolulu’s growing restaurant district, the showroom will serve as a central resource for current and prospective SpotOn customers. The facility will host product demonstrations, operator education sessions, implementation meetings, and training programs designed to help hospitality businesses maximize the value of their technology investments.
Local restaurant partners have welcomed SpotOn’s expanded presence in the region. Jun Tadiarca, General Manager of Empire Steakhouse Waikiki, said the establishment of a local SpotOn office demonstrates the company’s commitment to supporting Hawaiʻi restaurants.
“Our business partner SpotOn opening a local Hawaiʻi office shows they take their Hawaiʻi restaurants very seriously,” said Tadiarca. “Having a team of local and national experts right here means faster support, better service, and a partner who’s truly invested in helping us run our business.”
To mark the showroom’s official launch, SpotOn will host a private grand opening event on July 11, 2026. The gathering will bring together restaurant owners, operators, and hospitality professionals from across Hawaiʻi to tour the new facility and experience SpotOn’s technology firsthand.
The celebration will include a traditional Hawaiian blessing ceremony and a lion dance performance, reflecting SpotOn’s appreciation for the local culture and community. The event is intended to celebrate not only the opening of the showroom but also the company’s growing partnership with Hawaiʻi’s hospitality sector.
Stephanie Rodriguez, Managing Director of the Hawaiʻi Market at SpotOn, highlighted the company’s long-term vision for the region.
“We’re not here to simply sell technology in Hawaiʻi. We’re building a long-term local operation dedicated to supporting the hospitality industry here,” said Rodriguez. “That means local implementation, onboarding, training, rapid support, and a team that understands the unique needs of operators across the islands. We’re incredibly grateful for the support and welcome we’ve received from the Hawaiʻi community, and we look forward to continuing to build long-term partnerships that help local operators succeed.”
With the launch of its Hawaiʻi showroom, SpotOn is strengthening its role as a technology partner for restaurants and hospitality businesses across the islands. By combining advanced digital solutions with local expertise and in-person support, the company aims to help operators improve efficiency, adapt to changing customer expectations, and build stronger businesses.
The new Kakaʻako location will provide restaurant owners and hospitality professionals with a place to explore innovative technology, receive personalized guidance, and connect directly with SpotOn’s Hawaiʻi team as they work toward greater operational success.
