About Menu Monocle, LLC dba Monocle Marquee

Menu Monocle, LLC was founded in 2010 to provide magnification products that enhance every day lives of people who benefit from enlarged type, such as Baby Boomers and Seniors. In our search for a solution, we learned that restaurant managers responsible for business profits need better results from their existing tabletop menu displays that are used to promote high profit items. Our solution is the Monocle Marquee, a highly visible tabletop menu display with a 4X magnifier that customers will pick up. It meets customers’ needs and managers’ goals!

Nearly everyone who saw the product mentioned numerous applications in their home and office environment. . . how the magnifier would make it easier to read small print on prescription bottles, bills, recipes, food products, and on and on. They wanted to be able to use the menu display area for creating and keeping personal lists of critical phone numbers, pictures, and/or inspirational messages. Equally important, they liked the fact that it is a tabletop design. It stands up and cannot be lost in a drawer or under papers like a stand-alone contact list, reading glasses or a magnifying glass. As a result, we made the Monocle Marquee magnifier display units available through retail outlets.

The Monocle Marquee display also provides great customer service in various business environments while enabling those businesses to portray important information in the custom display area. For example, a bank uses it at teller windows to promote their most current CD rates and financial information while enabling customers to use the magnifier to read the fine print on deposit slips and receipts. In doing so, banks get their information directly into the hands of their customers while providing great customer service.
