Innovorder raises €20M to expand AI capabilities across European restaurant operations

Innovorder, a French restaurant technology company, has secured €20 million in funding led by UL Invest, the family office of technology entrepreneur Laurent Useldinger. The round combines new capital with a partial buyout of existing investor shares, with Evolem retaining its stake from its initial 2019 investment.

The company develops cloud-based software for restaurant operators across commercial and contract catering. Its platform handles order management, payment processing, kitchen operations, business management, and customer loyalty programs.

Focus on AI agents and automation

Over the past 18 months, Innovorder has built a dedicated AI team and deployed its first AI agents for customers. The company developed Atlas, a proprietary platform that automates operational and management tasks while integrating with existing systems.

Atlas targets routine administrative work that consumes operator time. The platform is designed to improve efficiency across kitchens and back-office functions.

Market position and growth metrics

Innovorder operates in the European contract catering market, valued at €22 billion and still dominated by legacy systems. The company has achieved profitability since 2024 and reports 40 percent annual organic growth. It projects €15 million in revenue for 2026.

The company serves quick-service restaurants, bakeries, coffee shops, food courts, and institutional catering for schools, universities, hospitals, and corporate dining facilities.

Capital deployment

Innovorder will use the funding for product development, European market expansion, potential acquisitions, and strengthening its position in both commercial and contract catering segments. The investment signals confidence in the company's AI for product development strategy and market opportunity.
