Case Study: National Food Group achieves seamless meeting-room efficiency and better collaboration with JOAN

The National Food Group and JOAN Focusing on Collaboration

The National Food Group, a food‑rescue and distribution organization serving schools, hospitals and other institutions, needed to maximize scarce meeting space in its dynamic open‑plan office. With back‑to‑back bookings, unclear room availability and people frequently taking rooms reserved for upcoming meetings, the team faced wasted time and frustration until their IT manager introduced Joan’s room‑booking solution (JOAN).

Joan’s door displays and booking features gave instant visibility into room occupancy, who was next and a quick “Meet now” option for ad‑hoc use. By deploying Joan, National Food Group reduced time spent hunting for rooms, prevented accidental takeovers, improved room turnover and boosted overall productivity—bringing transparency and efficiency to a highly collaborative workplace.
