HotSchedules to Exhibit its Products and Solutions at Western Foodservice & Hospitality Expo:

San Diego Event to Expose Austin Company to Thousands of Restaurant-Industry Representatives

(August 2011) Austin, TX - HotSchedules, the restaurant industry’s top source for web-based labor-management needs, is taking its innovative business solutions to the West Coast. HotSchedules will participate as an exhibitor at the Western Foodservice & Hospitality Expo, an industry event sponsored by the California Restaurant Association taking place at the San Diego Convention Center Aug. 28 – 30.

A first-time exhibitor at the expo, HotSchedules will present its intuitive suite of web-based scheduling, forecasting and employee-engagement solutions to thousands of restaurant-trade representatives, foodservice suppliers and hospitality-industry delegates during the annual three-day event. Of particular interest to hospitality and restaurant-industry attendees will likely be HotSchedules’ products that help streamline the employee-scheduling process for restaurants and hospitality-related businesses, reduce controllable labor costs and increases employee retention.

Additionally, representatives from HotSchedules, which was recently featured in a CNN Money segment highlighting the company’s unique culture and core values, will have the opportunity to discuss with expo attendees HotSchedules’ unconventional yet successful approach to workplace guidelines and progressive employee perks. Such perks include no company dress code, company-wide game tournaments, an oversized massage chair for staff, and a “no vacation policy” that allows employees to take extended time off with manager approval.

While HotSchedules currently boasts more than 650,000 users, and 6,000 independent, corporate and franchise restaurants rely on the company’s products every day, joining the Western Foodservice & Hospitality Expo will enable HotSchedules to reach even more restaurant- and hospitality-industry businesses in need of better scheduling and management tools.

Founded in 1999 by hospitality-industry veterans, HotSchedules provides intuitive, web-based scheduling, forecasting and employee-engagement solutions that help restaurants and other hospitality-related organizations better manage their business. HotSchedules also provides training and account management backed by a bilingual support team accessible seven days a week.
