Summary
“There are a number of food technology solutions in Latin America and the US, but this has turned the front and back of the house into a mess,” ; said Cebrián. “ To reverse that trend, they founded the Monterrey-based company Parrot in April 2020 and launched ParrotConnect in 2021, its point-of-sale software for restaurants that enables them to digitize and capitalize on the boom in home delivery to accelerate growth. Cebrián told TechCrunch that many restaurants balance an average of three delivery apps and 15 different menus in each location. The company has over 60 employees on the product and now operates more than 500 restaurants in Monterrey, Mexico City and the Riviera Maya that use ParrotConnect. On Monday, the company announced that it has secured $ 9.5 million, led by F Prime Capital, to further develop ParrotConnect and expand its presence in Mexico.
