  As shown in the figure, first, the CPU 11 of the restaurant information providing server 100 receives POS data for each menu for a predetermined period from the POS system 200 of a specific restaurant (the restaurant where the menu information on the site is updated). Is determined by the communication unit 19 (step 41).

  The POS data includes information such as the menu ID, the number of corresponding items and the order time.

  If it is determined that the POS data has been received (Yes), the CPU 11 classifies the sales data for each order time zone (step 42). There are two order time zones, for example, from 18:00 to 21:00 and from 21:00 to 23:00, but is not limited thereto.

  Subsequently, the CPU 11 extracts a menu of a predetermined number (for example, 3, 5, 10, etc.) with the highest number of orders for each classified order time zone (step 43).

  Then, the CPU 11 updates the menu information column of the target restaurant on the restaurant information providing site with the extracted top menu of each time zone (step 44).

  FIG. 5 is a diagram illustrating an example of a web page including menu information provided by the restaurant information providing server 100.

  The web page shown in the figure is a restaurant displayed as a result of the user of the user terminal 300 entering a search condition in the input box 51 and pressing the search button 52 on the top page of the restaurant information providing site, for example. By being selected from the information list, it is transmitted from the restaurant information providing server 100 to the user terminal 300 and displayed.

  As shown in the figure, the input box 51 and the search button 52 are always displayed at the top of the restaurant information providing site, for example, and the user can always search for restaurants.

  The website for each restaurant includes, for example, a page (menu posting page) on which the menu information provided by the restaurant is listed in addition to the name and area of the restaurant and the introduction information of the restaurant (upper part of the page) 53 can be displayed.

  Then, on the menu posting page, the menu with the highest number of items for each time zone divided by the restaurant information providing server 100 by the above-described method is displayed in the menu information display column 54 (54a, 54b) for each time zone. Is done.

  The menu information displayed in each menu information display column 54 is obtained every time the restaurant information providing server 100 shown in FIG. 4 performs processing (that is, every time sales data is received from the POS system 200 of each restaurant). To be updated.

  In the figure, the menu information displayed in each menu information display column 54 is displayed in a ranking format corresponding to the number of items, but it may not be displayed in the ranking format.

  Since the menu with the user's demand is assumed to be different between a relatively early time zone and a relatively late time zone during business hours, the restaurant information providing server 100 has different display fields depending on the time zone. By updating the menu information, the user's interest can be aroused according to the different demands.

[Summary]
As described above, the restaurant information providing server 100 updates the menu information on the restaurant information providing site based on the sales for each menu in the restaurant, so that the menu information on the site is actually visited. The user's preference can be dynamically changed, and the user's interest in the restaurant can be aroused.

[Modification]
The present invention is not limited to the above-described embodiments, and various modifications can be made without departing from the scope of the present disclosure.

  In the above-described embodiment, the restaurant information providing server 100 updates the menu information on the restaurant information providing site of the restaurant based on the POS data for each menu of one restaurant. However, the restaurant information providing server 100 may update the menu information on the restaurant information providing site of another restaurant based on the POS data for each menu of a certain restaurant.

  FIG. 6 is a flowchart showing a flow of menu information update processing by the restaurant information providing server 100 in this case. In the example of the figure, the restaurant that is the update target of the menu information is restaurant A, and the other restaurant that is the reference source for the update is restaurant B.

  As shown in the figure, first, the CPU 11 of the restaurant information providing server 100 determines whether or not the communication unit 19 has received POS data for each menu for a predetermined period from the POS system 200A of a certain restaurant B. (Step 61).

  If it is determined that the POS data has been received (Yes), the CPU 11 classifies the POS data for each order time zone (step 62). The order time zones to be classified are the same as those shown in FIG. 4, for example, but are not limited thereto.

  Subsequently, the CPU 11 extracts a predetermined number of menus with the highest number of orders for each classified order time zone (step 63).

  Then, CPU11 extracts the menu information of the restaurant A corresponding to the extracted number top menu for every time slot | zone from the said restaurant information database 31 (step 64).

  In this case, in the restaurant information database 31, the menu information of the restaurant B and the menu information of the restaurant A are stored in association with each other using, for example, a category of the menu, and the CPU 11 matches the category. Corresponding menus may be determined at both restaurants.

  Then, the CPU 11 updates the menu information column of the restaurant A on the restaurant information providing site with the menu of the restaurant A corresponding to the extracted menu of the restaurant B at the higher number of times in each time zone (step 65). .

  Accordingly, the information processing apparatus advertises a menu corresponding to a popular menu in the restaurant B having a larger total sales (profit ratio) than that of the restaurant A, for example, on the restaurant information providing site of the restaurant A. The user's interest in A can be aroused.

  Here, since the restaurant menu differs depending on the business type and the genre of the provided food, the CPU 11 needs to select the restaurant B that is the source of the update when updating the menu information of the restaurant A. . Therefore, the CPU 11 calculates the similarity between the restaurant A and other restaurants with reference to the information on the location, scale, and type of each restaurant included in the restaurant information database 31, and is equal to or greater than a predetermined value. Other restaurants having similarities may be selected as restaurant B. Specifically, the CPU 11 scores the similarity (neighborhood in the case of a location) for each location, scale, and cuisine type, and may use, for example, whether the average value of each score is a predetermined threshold or more as a selection criterion. . Moreover, since it is assumed that the importance of the dish type is high with respect to the menu, the CPU 11 may weight the score of the dish type as compared with other scores.

  Thereby, the information processing apparatus reflects the popular menu of the restaurant B that exists in the vicinity of the restaurant A or has a similar size and cuisine type on the information providing site of the restaurant A, so that the user's interest in the restaurant A Can be evoked with higher accuracy.

  In the above-described embodiment, the restaurant information providing server 100 displays the menu information on the restaurant information providing site based on the POS data for each menu in the predetermined period, and the predetermined number of menu information having higher numbers in the predetermined period. Updated to However, the restaurant information providing server 100 may update the menu information to a predetermined number of menu information items with lower numbers in a predetermined period.

  Thereby, the restaurant information providing server 100 can advertise to the user a menu that the restaurant side wants to recommend to customers but the number of items is not increasing. In this case, each restaurant's POS system 200 notifies the restaurant information providing server 100 of the recommended (sells) menu information of each restaurant, and the restaurant information providing server 100 has the above-mentioned lower number. Of these menus, only a predetermined number of menus that match the recommended menu may be extracted and the page may be updated with the menu information.

  In the above-described embodiment and the other embodiments described above, the restaurant information providing server 100 updates the menu information of the restaurant information providing site according to the number of items for each menu. However, the restaurant information providing server 100 may update the menu information according to the sales amount or the profit rate for each menu, not the number of items for each menu. The restaurant providing server 100 may update the menu information according to any two or more of the number of items for each menu, the sales amount, and the profit rate. That is, the restaurant information providing server 100 can update the menu information according to at least one of the number of items for each menu, the sales amount, and the profit rate. For example, the menu information is updated to the menu with the highest number of issues (within a predetermined rank) and the highest sales amount (within a predetermined rank), or the menu with the highest number of issues (within a predetermined rank) or higher profit margin (within a predetermined rank). May be.

  In this case, the restaurant information providing server 100 receives, as part of the POS data from the POS system 200 of each restaurant, information on sales or profit ratio for each menu in addition to the number of items issued, and the sales information database 33. May be stored. Regarding the profit rate, the restaurant information providing server 100 receives at least information on the cost (purchase price) for each menu from the POS system 200 of each restaurant, and subtracts the cost from the sales amount for the sales amount for each menu. The menu information may be updated to a predetermined number of menus having a high percentage (which is defined as a profit rate).

  In the above-described embodiment, the server that operates the restaurant information providing site and the server that receives and manages the POS data from the POS system 200 of each restaurant are the same server (restaurant information providing server 100). However, a separate POS server for managing the POS data of each restaurant is provided separately from the server that provides the restaurant information, and the POS data is exchanged between the POS server and the restaurant information providing server. The menu information on the store information providing site may be updated.

  In the above-described embodiment, the restaurant information providing server 100 provides a portal site (restaurant information providing site) on which a plurality of restaurant information is posted, and the restaurant information providing server 100 specifies the restaurant information providing site. An example of updating the menu information on the web page of the restaurant of has been described. However, the update target need not be a web page.

  For example, the restaurant information providing server 100 is a restaurant information displayed by an application or a dedicated program on an order receiving terminal (tablet PC or dedicated terminal) installed in each table so that the user can view and operate the table. The menu information on the menu posting page included in the provided page group may be updated based on the POS data for each menu. In this case, the updated menu information may be, for example, a menu posted as a recommended menu on the top page or menu posting page of the restaurant information providing page group in the order receiving terminal.

  When a user terminal such as a smartphone or tablet PC carried by the user functions as the order receiving terminal, the menu displayed on the user terminal may be updated based on the POS data. In this case, the user terminal may be able to place an order with respect to the restaurant POS system 200 by selecting a menu on the menu page on the restaurant information providing site, or may receive menu information from the POS system 200 or from the outside. It may be possible to place an order with the POS system 200 by selecting a menu on a menu posting page in a restaurant information providing page group that is downloaded and displayed on the application.
