MINNEAPOLIS, March 29, 2011 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Wireless Ronin Technologies, Inc. (Nasdaq:RNIN), a Minneapolis-based digital signage provider, announced that The Johnny Rockets Group, Inc., an international restaurant chain with approximately 300 locations and serving more than 13 million hamburgers to its guests each year, plans to implement RoninCast® digital menu and promotional boards.   

"Johnny Rockets chose Wireless Ronin for our RoninCast software, proven food service industry track record and most importantly, because of our skilled, responsive and professional team," said President and CEO of Wireless Ronin Technologies, Scott Koller. "We offer more than our robust, proprietary RoninCast software; we surround that software with services that help our clients get the maximum return on their investment in digital signage technology." 

Johnny Rockets is updating and equipping its smaller footprint, fast casual style restaurants with a more impactful menu board solution. As the supplier for digital signage, Wireless Ronin will be responsible for program implementation and management in branded store projects using digital signage. Johnny Rockets and Wireless Ronin anticipate a multi-year implementation effort. Wireless Ronin will provide Johnny Rockets software, hardware, content engineering, installation, project management, training, and network support through its network operations center (NOC). 

"Johnny Rockets sought a digital signage company that had the experience and tools to implement a sophisticated, visually stunning, and easily updateable digital solution. After having reviewed a cross section of the industry during the RFP process, Wireless Ronin was chosen as the clear winner," said Chad Bailey, Director, Brand Marketing of Johnny Rockets. "So far we are very pleased with our relationship with the Ronin team, and look forward to creating a leading edge digital signage solution together."
