Salido, a restaurant software startup, has raised $12 million in Series A funding, with First Data as an investor. Salido’s point-of-sale hardware and software can extract customer data for restaurants. The program details exactly what customers order, how much money they spent, and details how much time their customers spend at the table.

The announcement comes as First Data launched their own Clover Mini and Clover Flex products in Germany and Austria.

Why Tradin Organic wants supplement makers off spot buying for key ingredients

Why Tradin Organic wants supplement makers off spot buying for key ingredients

Weather pressures mango, cocoa, and wild-harvested ingredients. Tradin Organic suggested moving key ingredients from spot buying to partnerships. They sometimes work with development banks, offering loans as part of these arrangements aligned with sustainability goals.

  • 01When warm nights stop mango trees in Peru from flowering, the spot market can tell a buyer what scarce fruit costs, but it cannot grow any more of it.
  • 02Buyer commitments can make farm projects financeable, enabling development banks to fund them as standard loans aligned with sustainability goals.

  • 01For operators short on skilled labor, a line the current crew can run and maintain could pay off sooner than the one with the best spec sheet.
  • 02The retrofit-first reading fits mature plants with a large installed base; processors adding capacity for value-added products in emerging economies are more likely buying complete new lines.
