We are proudly South African, with all software developed locally, giving GAAP a competitive advantage over other international POS products with quick response to changing local requirements, software customization and integration to varied 3rd party solutions.

There is an extensive branch network around South Africa, as well as a network of agents in multiple African countries. Besides POS and back office software, GAAP also provides solutions and services for drive-through outlets as well as digital menu board solutions, labour management, customer communication solutions and more
“We are proud to build on our relationship with a world-leading brand in fast food,” said MD, Jean-Paul d’Abbadie. “It’s very gratifying for a South African software business to be shown this level of confidence by an international brand like KFC and it’s a testament to the hard work and dedication of the large GAAP team around South Africa that we beat out international competition to secure this contract. We look forward to working closely with KFC to complete the rollout into all 1100 sites around Africa and to partnering with them as they continue expanding in Africa.”-MD, Jean-Paul d’Abbadie.
