Stand Out in the Crowd with Customized Solutions
​
Increased competition combined with more informed consumers creates the need for improved guest services through enhanced entertainment offerings. This can be accomplished by partnering with The Pelican Group to develop and implement a customized vending management solution to meet your corporate goals.
​
We work closely with your organization to develop a custom solution across all locations based on the type of establishments, the locations and demographics.
Great Partners = Major Profits
​
In addition to Pelican’s network of over 600 local operators, The Pelican Group has partnered with the leading manufacturers of the newest technologies including digital music, interactive gaming, video & table gaming and bulk vending. Partnering with technology leaders in vending, such as TouchTunes, IT Games and Global VR allows us to develop the most state-of-the-art program for our clients.
Music
Increased Revenue: Music to Your Ears!
​
Current background music systems playing looped music playlists are inferior as they are both unappealing for your employees and your customers. New, digital, interactive music systems allow your patrons to choose the music they want to hear from a prescreened list of approved genres. As part of our custom solution, The Pelican Group has developed a Music Advisory Board that includes a representative from TouchTunes, the local / corporate organization and a representative from The Pelican Group to develop a digital music program that is right for your brand. Not only does this interactive solution enhance the environment of your brand, it also generates bottom line revenue.

Amusement Equipment
Warning: Customers May Get Addicted (To Your Establishment)!
​
The right mix of video games at an establishment will enhance the overall guest experience leading to increased guest satisfaction and improved revenues. Research suggests that adding even a single amusement game to an establishment increases the energy in the establishment and can increase the establishment’s core business.
