Bringing life back to what’s been 86’d.
Bar service observation and liquor loss evaluation are available for hospitality operators.
Many bars lose 15–25% of liquor revenue through overpours and inconsistent service.
Pulse86 helps identify where those losses occur.
PULSE86 is the authorized AndroBar dealer and service provider for Ontario.
