Many UK resellers already sell kiosks from Elo, Flytech, Advantech-Aures or Posiflex. All are respected brands. But relying on a single kiosk brand can leave you exposed to lead times, price changes and gaps in the range. If you are looking for a kiosk alternative or a second-source brand, here is why HiStone is worth a look.
1. A complete self-service range
HiStone covers 15.6-inch mini self-checkouts (HS150 and HS150K), countertop kiosks (HK568MSC), 23.8-inch kiosks (HS330U) and 27-inch self-checkouts (HS520U).
2. Integrated peripherals
Many HiStone kiosks include a 1D/2D scanner and thermal printer in the enclosure, reducing the number of parts you need to source, configure and fit, compared with modular kiosk systems.
3. The 23.8-inch sweet spot
The HS330U’s 23.8-inch screen sits between common 21.5 and 27-inch options. Read our 23.8 vs 21.5-inch comparison.
4. One manufacturer for kiosks, EPOS and mobile
HiStone also makes Windows and Android EPOS terminals, mobile EPOS tablets and kitchen displays, so you can offer a consistent hardware estate from one brand.
5. Global scale, proven deployments
Founded in 1989, HiStone reports it is number two worldwide for self-ordering kiosk shipments, citing Datos Insights. Deployments include 350+ self-checkouts at Blyzenko and all 13 stores of Ralph’s Supermercado.
6. UK distribution built for resellers
