About Brulines
Brulines Group is focused on the provision of real time monitoring systems and data management services for the UK's pub, leisure, gaming and petrol sectors. The Group has four core divisions:
|
Leisure: Dispense Monitoring (DMS) |
The Group's core product, DMS, is widely used by owners and operators within the UK licensed on-trade, especially the tenanted / leased pub sector. Flow meters connected to draught beer dispense lines send data via an on-site communication panel to a secure central database. Liquid volumes by beer fount, draught wine or post mix are tracked as they are served, thereby helping customers to maximise sales, service and quality as well as managing their costs. DMS is installed in over 22,000 pubs and manages data for more than one in three UK pubs. |
|
Leisure: i-draught (formerly BQM) |
i-draught is an extension of the Group's DMS and is the first system to provide effective measurement of true yields on draught products. Actual dispense volumes are compared with till transactions to identify shrinkage from products given away, pilferage and wastage. i-draught measures the precise temperature of every pint as it is dispensed, the time taken to dispense each drink, and automatically identifies the liquid allowing customers to know exactly when lines are cleaned. Wherever they are customers can stay in control through accessing their information on a secure web site. |
|
Leisure: Gaming Machine Monitoring |
The Group's subsidiaries Machine Insite and Coin metrics are involved in monitoring Amusement with Prize Machines ("AWP"). Customers benefit from state-of-the-art real-time data capture and reporting systems that deliver improved machine profitability and operational security. |
|
Petrol Forecourt Services |
The Group's wholly-owned subsidiary, Edensure, supplies key management information to independent, multi branded owner, and supermarket petrol forecourt operators in the UK which helps reduce loss of fuel and improve profitability. |
|
Vending Telemetry |
The Group's subsidiary Vianet is a pan-European provider of telemetry solutions and data applications to the vending industry and also provides leading m2m connectivity solutions. |
Headquartered in Stockton-on-Tees, Brulines employs more than 240 people.
