About
Innovorder is a French restaurant technology company founded in 2014 that provides an omnichannel digital platform for commercial restaurants and collective catering operations 1. The platform unifies point-of-sale (POS), ordering kiosks, online ordering, click-and-collect, delivery, and QR-code table ordering through a single system 1. The company serves over 2,500 clients, split roughly 50/50 between quick-service restaurants and collective catering, including Big Fernand, Amorino, Bagel Corner, Elior, Sodexo, and the City of Paris (which uses Innovorder to manage 25 restaurants) 2.
Innovorder reached profitability in 2024 and grew 40% in the prior year, with projected 2026 revenue of €15 million 12. The company is co-founded and led by Jérôme Varnier (CEO), Romain Melloul (General Manager), and Olivier Loverde (CTO, who joined in 2016) 2.
In conjunction with the June 2026 round, Innovorder launched Atlas, an AI-native platform that converts restaurant data into actionable decisions, including chatbot-based analytics and HR scheduling tools, with a data-security architecture that avoids sending data to external LLM providers 2.
