Chennai: City-based Technology Frontiers (I) (TFPL) is targeting growing malls and retail chains for its digital kiosks, said a top official here.
"We have signed deals with Future Group to install our kiosks in their malls," M.S. Muralidharan, managing director of TFPL, told IANS on the sidelines of the press conference after launching a multi-broadcast digital kiosk TOUCHME Tuesday.
He said the full touch screen digital kiosk is web and transaction enabled so that a person could book airline and cinema tickets and also do online banking, mobile phone recharge and even gaming.
TFPL is currently leasing its kiosks to malls and retail chains, which in turn would find clients for kiosks.
"Our revenue will be lease rentals from the mall or retail chain owners," Muralidharan said.
Speaking about the order from the Future Group that owns chains like Pantaloon and Big Bazaar, he said: "To start with, we will be supplying 200 kiosks this month and another 200 units will go before this year end."
