Case Study: Torchy's Tacos achieves scalable, fast video coverage with Verkada

How One of America’s Fastest Growing Restaurant Chains is Scaling Video Coverage

Torchy’s Tacos, a fast-growing restaurant chain with over 70 locations, was hindered by an aging DVR-based video system that made pulling footage slow and created a bottleneck at headquarters. Seeking an easier-to-use, scalable solution, Torchy’s turned to Verkada and its hybrid cloud camera system (plus the web-based Command software) to replace the antiquated infrastructure.

Verkada deployed plug-and-play PoE cameras and the Command platform across sites, eliminating DVRs and enabling installers to bring cameras online in minutes. As a result, Torchy’s can find and share footage almost instantaneously (cutting retrieval times from hours to minutes), scale coverage across entrances, dining and parking areas, and accelerate incident resolution—so much so that Torchy’s will outfit all new locations with Verkada and recommends the solution to peers.
