Digital dining platform visuEats has announced its partnership with AnimeCom Fest as the exclusive provider of the event’s cashless food court at this year’s staging set for the National Arena in St Andrew on Saturday, August 9.

visuEats, the Caribbean’s first digital food marketplace, has been revolutionising the way people order, pay for, and enjoy food since its launch. The platform connects diners with restaurants through interactive visual menus, pre-ordering capabilities, and seamless cashless transactions.

The collaboration with this year’s AnimeCom Fest follows visuEats’ successful execution of the cashless food court at Reggae Sumfest where patrons enjoyed a fast, convenient, and secure dining experience.

AnimeCom Fest, regarded as Jamaica’s largest celebration of animation, arts, pop culture, and cultural diversity, has experienced remarkable growth since its inception. What began as a niche event has quickly evolved into a large-scale festival attracting hundreds of patrons, vendors, and international guests.

With its move to the National Arena, organisers say the event is set to deliver its most expansive staging yet, featuring live performances, panel discussions, cosplay competitions, and a vibrant exhibition.

“visuEats is thrilled to bring our technology and expertise to AnimeCom Fest,” a company release quotes CEO Sophronia McKenzie. “Our mission has always been to make dining more convenient, engaging, and accessible, and partnering with an event as dynamic and creative as AnimeCom allows us to do exactly that. We look forward to providing a seamless, cashless dining experience for all attendees.”

The company said that by offering a cashless food court at the festival, it will ensure that patrons can focus on the fun and excitement without the hassle of cash transactions.

AnimeCom Fest promoter Ricardo Carter said he was excited to welcome visuEats as the exclusive cashless food court provider.

“AnimeCom Fest has grown tremendously over the years, and moving to the National Arena means bigger crowds, more vendors, and an even more immersive experience. visuEats’ technology will help us deliver on our promise to keep the event fresh, innovative, and enjoyable for everyone,” Carter said.
