Kluck’s Cloud-Native Restaurant Platform and Epson Liner-Free Thermal Label Printers Simplify Order Fulfillment and Eliminate Guest Pickup Confusion for Central Park St. Pete Food Hall
LOS ALAMITOS, Calif. , Oct. 27, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Epson today announced that Central Park St. Pete Food Hall, a multi-concept dining destination in St. Petersburg, Florida, has found success with Epson point-of-sale (POS) labeling and printing solutions for its innovative multi-vendor ordering and fulfillment model. Leveraging OmniLink® TM-L100 liner-free thermal label printers across every vendor stall and OmniLink mSeries receipt printers at bars and expo stations, Central Park St. Pete provides guests with a frictionless pickup experience while simplifying operations for food hall operators and vendors alike.
“Central Park St. Pete was built around the idea that guests should be able to explore multiple food concepts as easily as they would a single restaurant,” said Natalia Levey, co-owner, Central Park St. Pete. “Each kitchen runs its own menu and hours, but whether guests order at a kiosk or online for takeout, it feels like one cohesive experience. Epson’s printing and labeling technology helps streamline workflow and the customer experience by making pickup intuitive and stress-free, allowing guests to focus on enjoying the food rather than figuring out which order belongs to them.”
Powered by Kluck, a cloud-native restaurant technology platform, Central Park St. Pete enables guests to order from multiple food concepts in a single transaction through kiosks or QR codes. As orders are prepared independently by individual vendors, Kluck allows the Food Hall to ensure every item is clearly identified and delivered to the correct guest, critical to maintaining a seamless customer experience.
“Getting orders to the kitchen isn’t the challenge, it’s everything that happens afterward,” said Cary Hicks, co-founder, Kluck. “Food halls create a unique operational challenge because a single transaction needs to be routed to multiple kitchens simultaneously. We designed our cloud-native platform to orchestrate that complexity behind the scenes. Epson’s solutions allow us to automatically generate labels at the correct vendor location in real time, ensuring every item is clearly identified and ready for pickup without adding extra steps for staff.”
Central Park St. Pete selected Epson as its exclusive printer provider, standardizing on a single platform across the facility to streamline deployment, support and day-to-day operations. Epson’s ePOS™ technology enables Kluck’s cloud-native platform to route print jobs across the network, ensuring labels are automatically generated at the appropriate vendor location.
“As hospitality concepts evolve, operators need technology that can support flexible and connected service models,” said Ian Livesay, product manager, Epson America, Inc. “Whether it’s a traditional restaurant or a multi-vendor venue, accurate labeling and reliable networked printing play an important role in creating efficient workflows and positive guest experiences. We’re proud to help innovative operators like Central Park St. Pete deliver both.”
Today, guests can place a single order across multiple vendors, pay once and easily collect their food from different stalls throughout the venue – a seamless experience from checkout to pickup.
“Reliable printing is one of those things nobody notices until it fails, and Epson’s printers have been extremely reliable for us,” said Hicks. “The TM-L100 label printers integrate seamlessly with our platform, printing each guest’s name directly on every order so guests always know exactly which food is theirs. That simple detail is what makes pickup across multiple vendors feel effortless. Central Park St. Pete proved the model, and we’re now brining the same Kluck and Epson solution to food halls and multi-vendor operators across the country.”
