Target MarketBarzone is aimed at the licensed retail sector and complementary service industries. For example since the smoking ban, pubs and bars have been experiencing incredible growth on secondary spends such as food due to families heightened use of pubs and bars for family friendly meals thanks to the smoke free environment.
Additionally, the boom of the whole licensed retail sector has meant that Barzone is aimed at venues from hotels who now frequently offer cocktails, restaurants, cafes, cruise ships, health & fitness clubs and Michelin starred gastro pubs to the usual array of pubs & bars.
