Presto founder and CEO Rajat Suri said: “Restaurants serve billions of consumers and are a critical part of our economy, and yet have typically been underserved by world-class technology.

“Less than 1% of restaurants globally currently use technology to optimise their front-office. These funds will be leveraged to support our rapid growth and expand our products and services to our partners in the restaurant industry.”

The company has partnered with various restaurants such as Applebee’s, Denny’s, CraftWorks, Red Lobster and Outback Steakhouse.
