ezCater has acquired catering management platform Monkey Group to integrate its takeaway, delivery and catering platform.
The merger will allow ezCater’s marketplace and software platform to process more catering orders from restaurants and caterers.
Monkey’s point-of-sale (POS), loyalty and back-of-the-house systems will assist ezCater in processing orders and data to flow across its entire operation.
ezCater co-founder and CEO Stefania Mallett said: “ezCater’s and Monkey Group’s strengths line up exceptionally well.
“Combining Monkey Group’s industry leading offerings with ezCater’s nationwide online marketplace, expert marketing engine, and API-first platform results in faster, more profitable growth for restaurants.”
Based in Vancouver, Monkey Group is currently operating as MonkeySoft Solutions (MSI). The group will maintain its existing brands, MONKEYMEDIA Software, The Catering Institute and Off-Premise Insights.
