With more than 90 employees across 13 states, backing from M33 Growth, and a growing roster of multi-unit brands, the restaurant technology company celebrates its new home with a Grand Opening on Thursday, October 15, 2026

KANSAS CITY, Mo., Oct. 12, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Rosnet, the restaurant data and operations platform trusted by 84 franchise brands across more than 6,000 locations, is officially out of the cave. For years, the company worked out of an underground business park carved into the limestone bluffs of Parkville, Missouri. Now it has moved into a modern, purpose-built headquarters at 11500 N Ambassador Drive, Suite 400, in Kansas City's Northland.

The move isn't just a change of address. It's what growth looks like when you can see it. Over the past year Rosnet has added clients, expanded its team, strengthened its leadership bench, and secured new investment. The cave served the company well for years, but this next phase of growth called for a workplace built for in-person collaboration.

A bigger team. Rosnet now employs more than 90 people across 13 states, with Kansas City as the hub. The company has also strengthened its leadership team in 2026, led by CEO Derek Slayton, to guide its next phase of expansion.

More operators are on the platform. Rosnet's reporting, food management, and labor management tools now support 84 franchise brands and more than 6,000 restaurant locations.

Serious investment behind it. Rosnet is backed by M33 Growth, which completed a majority investment in the company earlier this year. We believe that partnership gives Rosnet the fuel to scale faster than at any other point in its history.

Built for being together. The new fourth-floor space was designed around in-person collaboration, supporting Rosnet's return-to-office program that launched in September. It features a training and conference room that seats up to 87 with full AV, huddle rooms outfitted for hybrid meetings, whiteboards in every room, two full kitchens, and an on-site micro market stocked with fresh food and snacks. There is also a game room for friendly competition and a well-earned break between meetings. Coffee is on the house.

Every room has a KC story. Conference rooms are named for Kansas City landmarks and neighborhoods: Boulevard, Union Station, Parkville, Northland, Legends, and Crossroads. The Parkville room is a nod to the company's longtime home, and the rest are a love letter to the city Rosnet has called home for more than 25 years. Meetings in the Boulevard room may or may not end with a toast.

"We loved the cave, but you can only fit so much growth underground," said Derek Slayton, CEO of Rosnet. "This space is a reflection of where Rosnet is headed. We're adding clients, adding talent, and investing in the kind of culture you can only build when people are in the same room solving problems together. Our clients run restaurants where teamwork happens face to face every shift, and we want our team to work the same way. Kansas City has been home for more than 25 years, and this headquarters is our commitment to growing here for a long time to come."

Come see it for yourself. Rosnet will celebrate a Grand Opening event on Thursday, October 15th at 11500 N Ambassador Drive, Suite 400, Kansas City, MO 64153. Members of the media are invited to tour the space, meet the team, and grab a seat in the Union Station room. To RSVP, contact Erin Neuburger at [email protected].

About Rosnet: Founded in 1998, Rosnet has grown into a respected leader in the restaurant data and operations marketplace. Thousands of locations, including large multi-unit concepts like Applebee's, Wendy's, Corner Bakery, STK, and IHOP, utilize the company's reporting, food management, and labor management systems. Rosnet couples easy-to-use tools with world-class support to help restaurant companies maximize profits without the need to invest in multiple systems. Learn more at www.rosnet.com.

CHANGAN Enters a New Phase of European Growth at Mondial de l'Auto 2026

CHANGAN NEVO debut, broader powertrain offerings and deeper local operations underline CHANGAN's long-term commitment to Europe

PARIS, Oct. 12, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Changan Automobile outlined the next phase of its European strategy at Mondial de l'Auto 2026. Following the introduction of the CHANGAN DEEPAL line in Europe last year, Changan unveiled the all-new CHANGAN NEVO line and announced plans to broaden its powertrain range and further expand its local R&D, engineering and customer service capabilities. Together, these developments mark a new stage in Changan's long-term commitment to Europe, bringing a wider choice of products and stronger local support to meet customers' changing mobility needs.

The CHANGAN NEVO line is built around three core values: Refined Design, Shared Comfort and Enjoyable Technology. Refined Design combines sophisticated aesthetics with a natural, welcoming sense of comfort, balancing visual refinement with everyday practicality. Shared Comfort places every occupant at the centre of the journey, with thoughtfully designed space, flexible layouts and equal comfort across the cabin. Enjoyable Technology integrates an intelligent cockpit, connected digital experiences and real-time driving assistance to create an experience that is smarter, safer, and stress-free. To date, CHANGAN NEVO has served more than one million families globally, turning intelligent and comfortable mobility into part of everyday life for a growing community of users worldwide.

The CHANGAN NEVO Q05 made its European debut at Mondial de l'Auto 2026. The NEVO Q05 combines a spacious interior, driver assistance technologies and everyday usability for urban and suburban lifestyles. Looking ahead, the CHANGAN NEVO product line will expand with models including the all-new CHANGAN NEVO Q06, further broadening the choice for families. CHANGAN NEVO Q06 brings together expressive design, comfort, intelligent technology and confident handling to make a premium family mobility experience accessible to a wider audience.

The expansion of Changan's European product portfolio is part of a broader strategy that combines new model introductions with the continued development of local design, engineering and customer support capabilities. CHANGAN established its European Design Centre in Turin, Italy, in 2001 and subsequently expanded its regional research and engineering capabilities, including an R&D centre in Birmingham, United Kingdom. Over more than two decades, the company has continued to strengthen its European presence across design, engineering and customer services.

Guided by its "In Europe, For Europe" strategy, Changan is developing a localised ecosystem spanning research and development, service, talent and future manufacturing opportunities. The company is also strengthening after-sales provision through spare parts centres in the Netherlands and the United Kingdom, alongside technical support, customer service and engineering training.

In Europe, CHANGAN DEEPAL S05 and S07 are already on sale in BEV versions, and the left-hand-drive S05 PHEV has now joined them. The S07 PHEV will be introduced across major European markets later this year. The NEVO Q05 is expected to launch in Spain and Italy by the first quarter of 2027. The CHANGAN brand and its DEEPAL and NEVO lines, together with AVATR, form Changan Automobile's European brand and product portfolio.

"Europe has always been the benchmark. We come here to learn from our partners and to grow together," said Zhao Fei, General Manager of Changan Group and President of Changan Automobile. "Changan is here to stay. Like plane trees along the Seine, we are putting down deep roots in Europe and growing with you. Together with our partners, we will move the global auto industry forward and bring better products and services to customers worldwide."

The European debut of CHANGAN NEVO in Paris further broadens Changan Automobile's product portfolio in the region. In line with its "In Europe, For Europe" strategy, Changan will continue to expand its product offering and strengthen local capabilities, bringing greater choice and dependable support to European customers while contributing to a smarter and more sustainable future of mobility.

The article outlines how heat, road conditions, and tire ratings affect driver safety and performance in southern Arizona.

NOGALES, Ariz., Oct. 12, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- What should Arizona drivers ask before choosing tires for heat, highway miles, and rough road conditions around Nogales? HelloNation has published an article that provides clear answers and practical guidance for drivers navigating these demanding conditions.

The HelloNation article explains that selecting Arizona heat tires requires understanding how extreme temperatures affect performance and durability. In southern Arizona, road surfaces can become significantly hotter than the air, increasing tire stress. The article notes that tire heat resistance is critical because specialized rubber compounds help prevent softening and maintain traction during long drives.

According to the article, heat directly impacts the lifespan. As temperatures rise, internal tire pressure increases, and materials begin to break down faster. This can lead to accelerated wear and a higher risk of blowouts, especially for drivers who rely on highway driving tires for long commutes or regional travel. The article emphasizes that choosing the right tires in Nogales, AZ, can reduce these risks and improve overall safety.

Highway conditions are another major factor discussed in the article. Many drivers in the region depend on highway driving tires that offer stability, fuel efficiency, and durability. The article describes how touring or all-season tread life tires with higher treadwear ratings are often well-suited for extended highway use. These tires are designed to handle sustained speeds while maintaining consistent performance.

The article also highlights the importance of tread design for drivers who encounter rough or uneven roads. In and around Nogales, AZ, road conditions can vary from smooth pavement to gravel or construction zones. The HelloNation article explains that reinforced sidewalls and more aggressive tread patterns improve durability and help protect against punctures. These features are especially valuable when selecting Nogales, AZ tires that must perform across mixed driving environments.

Understanding tire ratings is another key takeaway. The article explains that tire ratings provide insight into treadwear, traction, and temperature resistance. A higher temperature grade indicates stronger tire heat resistance, which is essential for Arizona heat tires exposed to extreme summer conditions. Reviewing tire ratings helps drivers make informed decisions that align with their driving habits and local environment.

Load and speed ratings are also addressed in the article. Vehicles that carry heavier loads or travel frequently at highway speeds require tires that can handle additional stress. The article notes that matching these specifications to driving needs supports better tread life, tire performance, and extends hot-weather tire lifespan.

Maintenance plays a critical role as well. The HelloNation article explains that proper inflation is essential in hot climates because underinflated tires generate excess heat and wear more quickly. Regular pressure checks and inspections for cracks or uneven tread wear can help drivers identify issues early and maintain the reliability of their highway driving tires.

The article further emphasizes that drivers in southern Arizona may need to replace tires sooner than expected due to heat exposure. Monitoring tread depth and overall condition ensures that Nogales, AZ tires continue to perform safely over time. These routine checks support longer tread life tires and reduce the likelihood of unexpected failures.

Automotive Expert Carl Krause of Cropper's Nogales Auto Center is featured in the article, which presents these insights as part of a broader effort to help drivers make informed decisions. The article positions Automotive Expert guidance as a valuable resource for understanding how Arizona heat tires, tire heat resistance, and tire ratings all contribute to safer driving outcomes. Cropper's Nogales Auto Center is mentioned as a local business familiar with the region's unique demands.

The article concludes that choosing the right tires involves balancing durability, performance, and environmental conditions. By focusing on tire heat resistance, reviewing tire ratings, and selecting appropriate highway driving tires, drivers can improve both safety and comfort. In a region like Nogales, these considerations are essential for maintaining a reliable vehicle.

What Should Arizona Drivers Ask Before Choosing Tires for Heat, Highway Miles, and Rough Road Conditions Around Nogales? features insights from Carl Krause of Cropper's Nogales Auto Center, Automotive Expert of Nogales, Arizona, in HelloNation.

Dental marketing company brings traditional SEO performance and emerging AI visibility insights together to help practices better understand their digital presence.

LEHI, Utah, Oct. 12, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Gargle, Inc., a dental-focused digital marketing company, is expanding its approach to search visibility measurement, helping dental practices gain a more comprehensive understanding of how patients discover them across Google and emerging AI-powered search platforms.

As the digital search landscape evolves, dental practices have more opportunities than ever to connect with prospective patients. Traditional search engines continue to play a critical role in patient discovery, while AI-powered platforms such as ChatGPT, Gemini, and Google's AI search experiences introduce additional ways for patients to research dental services and providers.

Gargle is helping dental practices understand both sides of this evolving landscape by combining established SEO performance insights with emerging AI search visibility analysis.

"SEO continues to be one of the most important foundations of dental marketing," said Jeff Richins, President of Gargle. "AI search isn't replacing the need for strong Google rankings, optimized websites, or local visibility. It's expanding the ways patients find dental providers. Our focus is helping practices understand their performance across all of these channels."

A More Complete Picture of Online Visibility

For years, dental practices have relied on metrics such as keyword rankings, website traffic, phone calls, and patient conversions to evaluate their digital marketing performance.

These measurements remain essential for understanding how effectively a practice attracts and converts prospective patients.

However, as AI-powered search experiences become part of the patient research process, practices have an additional opportunity to evaluate how their business is represented in AI-generated responses.

Gargle's approach brings together several important areas of digital visibility:

- Traditional SEO Performance: Evaluating keyword rankings, organic traffic, website optimization, and other indicators of search performance.

- Local Search Visibility: Understanding how practices appear in Google Maps, local search results, and other location-based discovery experiences.

- AI Search Visibility: Examining how dental practices are represented in responses generated by AI-powered platforms.

- Online Reputation and Authority: Assessing the digital signals that help patients and search platforms understand a practice's credibility.

- Patient Acquisition Performance: Connecting marketing activity to measurable outcomes such as calls, appointment inquiries, and new patient opportunities.

By evaluating these areas together, dental practices can develop a more informed understanding of their digital presence and identify opportunities for improvement.

Building on Proven SEO Strategies

Gargle's expanded visibility approach builds on its longstanding expertise in dental search engine optimization.

Rather than treating AI optimization as a replacement for traditional SEO, Gargle incorporates Answer Engine Optimization (AEO) and Generative Engine Optimization (GEO) alongside established strategies for website performance, local search, and content development.

Many of the elements that contribute to successful SEO, including relevant website content, accurate business information, and a strong local presence, also support a practice's broader digital visibility.

"The fundamentals of good digital marketing haven't disappeared," said Richins. "Dentists still need websites that perform well, strong local SEO, and strategies that generate measurable results. What we're doing is making sure those efforts also support visibility as search technology continues to evolve."

Helping Dental Practices Make More Informed Marketing Decisions

Through its AI Search & Marketing Visibility Report and ongoing search optimization services, Gargle is helping dental practices evaluate their current visibility and better understand opportunities across traditional and emerging search experiences.

As patient search behaviour continues to evolve, Gargle remains focused on providing dental-specific marketing strategies that combine established performance principles with emerging technologies.

"Our clients don't need separate strategies competing against each other," said Richins. "They need a comprehensive marketing approach that helps patients find them, whether they're searching on Google, exploring Google Maps, or asking an AI platform for recommendations."

About Gargle, Inc.

Gargle is a dental-focused digital marketing company specializing in website design, search engine optimization, AI search optimization, paid advertising, social media, and online reputation management. With a focus on measurable marketing performance and industry-specific expertise, Gargle helps dental practices strengthen their online presence and attract new patients.

CBS ArcSafe® Adds Wireless Operation and Milwaukee Power to Chicken Switch® RSK-DS10 for DS-Style Circuit Breakers

DENTON, Texas, Oct. 12, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- CBS ArcSafe®, a leading manufacturer of remote racking and switching solutions for low- and medium-voltage switchgear, has updated the Chicken Switch® RSK-DS10, a remote switch kit (RSK) that allows technicians to trip and close DS-style circuit breakers from outside the arc flash boundary. The updated kit is powered by a Milwaukee® M18™ REDLITHIUM ion battery pack for wireless operations.

DS-style low-voltage breakers from Westinghouse, Cutler-Hammer, Square D, and Eaton remain in service in facilities across the country. For teams that maintain this gear, the RSK-DS10 offers a cost-effective way to reduce operator exposure to arc flash hazards. The device eliminates hazardous manual contact with the gear during switching operations and can reduce the need for arc flash suits.

The RSK-DS10 is compatible with DS, DSII, DSL, and DSLII breakers, except models equipped with two vertical handles. Magnets hold the actuator securely against the breaker face, so technicians can quickly install and remove the device without any modifications to existing electrical equipment.

The addition of M18 battery power puts the RSK-DS10 on the same platform as much of CBS ArcSafe's remote switching lineup, while the handheld controller runs on standard alkaline batteries. Facilities can choose the configuration that best fits their layout and safety procedures: corded versions with 30- or 50-foot operating lengths or the new wireless version with a range up to 150 feet with line of sight.

All CBS ArcSafe products are manufactured in the United States at our facility in Denton, Texas. For more information, visit CBSArcSafe.com or call 877-4-SAFETY.

About CBS ArcSafe
