Shiji Group has been selected by Beijing Daxing International Airport as the exclusive supplier of POS hardware. With over 100 outlets, Shiji's HiStone has installed 200 Shiji HK950 Series terminals across the airport.
Shiji Group has been selected as the exclusive supplier of point-of-sale (POS) hardware for Beijing Daxing International Airport.
Beijing Daxing International Airport, China's new multibillion-dollar aviation hub, opened on September 25th, 2019. The airport boasts 700,000 square meters of terminal space, 82 boarding gates, and is expected to handle more than 100 million passengers by 2040.
As a leading provider of technology for the hospitality, retail, and travel industries, Shiji Group was selected as the exclusive supplier for the airport due to the company's industry knowledge, proven track record and reliable products. The airport elected to install Shiji's HK950 Series terminals, manufactured by HiStone.
Shiji acquired majority ownership of HiStone (previously known as Hisense Intelligent Commercial Systems) in March of 2019. Shiji Group now holds a total of 82.75% of HiStone, effectively becoming the controlling shareholder of the company.
The Shiji HK950 Series is a high-end POS workstation designed to deliver exceptional performance with maximum efficiency. The workstation is attractive and versatile, providing modern POS drivers and Windows or Linux Operating System options. The Shiji HK950 Series gives hospitality and retail operators a sleek but reliable hardware solution.
Spanning more than 100 outlets, 200 Shiji HK950 Series terminals have been installed in the airport to date. Due to a restriction in security passes, only two people at a time were allowed on site to install the terminals. Despite a lack in manpower and strict security procedures, the team was able to complete the project in two months; a great achievement for such a large install.
Mr. Guan Dong Yu, Vice President, Shiji Group states "We are extremely pleased to be able to service travelers in this monumental airport. Beijing Daxing International Airport will change the way future airports are built and operated across the globe."
