POS Nordic

What POS Nordic does

POS Nordic is a privately held Danish value-added reseller and distributor headquartered in Glostrup (Copenhagen area), operating since 1999. The company holds exclusive Nordic distribution rights for two category-leading hospitality technology platforms: NCR Aloha POS systems (100,000+ global installations) and Bartech Minibar Systems (automated sensor-based minibar management). It serves restaurants, hotels, concert venues, stadiums, and event operators across Denmark, Sweden, Norway, Finland, and Iceland, with named reference customers including Royal Arena, Burger King, Landal GreenParks, KB Hallen, and Musikkens Hus, alongside a broader base of 400+ delivered solutions.

The core product portfolio consists of NCR Aloha POS in table-service and quick-service variants, supplemented by an ecosystem of add-on modules (Aloha Mobile, Aloha Kitchen, Aloha InSight analytics, Aloha Loyalty, Aloha Stored Value gift cards, NCR Pulse mobile management, Aloha Digital Ordering, Aloha Configuration Center), supported by hardware terminals (NCR P1535, PX Series) and the Orderman7 handheld. The secondary product line is Bartech automated minibar systems, which use sensor technology to detect product removal, automatically bill guest folios, and reportedly reduce labor costs by approximately 70% with 12-18 month ROI. A small e-commerce shop sells consumable accessories such as thermal receipt rolls, BPA-free rolls, card reader rolls, and printer ribbons at unit prices of DKK 75-640.

The business model is a hybrid of one-time POS hardware and software license sales, Bartech minibar hardware sales, ongoing professional services and support under multi-year contracts, and a transactional consumables e-commerce channel. Go-to-market is primarily direct enterprise sales with quote-based pricing for core systems, supplemented by the self-service shop for accessories. The company employs 1-10 people, operates from a single Glostrup headquarters, and has no disclosed funding, parent company, M&A activity, or external investors in the source data.
