Cart vs Kiosk vs Pop-Up Store

There are no hard and fast industry definitions between what is a Cart, Kiosk or Pop-Up Store.  Many people use the terms interchangeably.  Here, at PIVOT, we do have a strong distinction between them.  This distinction comes down to how the stores are designed, constructed, utilized and certified.

A Cart, in PIVOT terms, is a single Modular Unit on wheels.  This Modular Unit is self-contained and can operate independently or in conjunction with other Carts or a Kiosk.  A Cart can also have a canopy integrated into the Cart.  Each PIVOT Cart has its own serial number and UL Listing.  Carts are very portable in design and nature and are typically held to different standards than Traditional Stores or Kiosks.  Our Carts are treated more like a portable piece of food service equipment.

A Kiosk, in PIVOT terms, is comprised of multiple Modular Units that, when combined, form a Non-Traditional Store.  Kiosks can either be on wheels or, most commonly, level glides with integrated kick plates.  Kiosks are self-standing and self-sufficient.  A Kiosk can be room center (Island) or can be placed against a wall.  PIVOT Kiosks are designed to include everything you need for the operations of your Store (i.e. hot water heater, water filtration, lighting, branding, etc.).  A PIVOT Kiosk has a single serial number and UL Listing.

The term Pop-Up Store is relatively new in the industry.  It refers to a Temporary Store with a small footprint that is fast to install with limited utility connections.  Pop-Up Stores typically require very little site preparation which makes them ideal for fast placement opportunities.  PIVOT’s Pop-Up Stores are on wheels and feature multiple plumbing options including a self-contained water/wastewater system with only an electrical hookup required.
