Drive-Thru Digital Menu Board

In the fast-food industry, the speed and convenience of drive-thru service are crucial for enhancing customer experience and optimizing operational efficiency. However, traditional drive-thru service models often have numerous limitations, especially during peak hours when customers may face long wait times. To address these challenges and meet the needs of modern customers, CNLC has introduced our advanced Drive-thru Digital Menu Board. This is not just a digital menu board but a self-service kiosk featuring a unique separation of the screen and audio system, as well as an integrated set of functionalities including surveillance camera, speaker system, manual buttons, and sensor technology.
