This month, we introduce Bustle, the Point of Sale (POS) software and management solution behind many of Ponsonby’s top cafes.
If you’ve seen your favourite barista enter your coffee order on an iPad, chances are it’s Bustle. This crowd favourite is making waves in New Zealand, Australia and the UK’s growing coffee scene.
What inspired Bustle?
Jonny McKenzie founded Bustle while managing his four hospitality venues in Wellington. Frustrated by outdated systems and manual reports, he sought a solution that would improve control, streamline operations and enhance profitability. Bustle evolved from a coffee-ordering app to a powerful POS designed to help venue owners like Jonny thrive.
Are you nationwide and global?
Yes, Bustle is growing worldwide, with a special focus on the UK. We’re proud to partner with Kiwi-founded coffee suppliers like Climpson & Son and Allpress, especially in the UK’s specialty coffee sector.
Do you see your clients as partners?
Absolutely. We designed Bustle to empower hospitality entrepreneurs by simplifying orders and providing insights into their business from anywhere.
Tell us about the team behind Bustle.
We’re a diverse group with experience in hospitality, software and marketing. Our team understands the unique challenges of the industry and is dedicated to making it easier for operators to succeed and serve local communities. Recently, Bustle hosted an event at Nami Record Bar in Ponsonby for customers to connect, share tips and learn how to help their businesses thrive.
Anything else to share?
