Nigerian restaurant management startup Orda has raised a US$1.1 million pre-seed funding round to speed its growth and expand across the continent. Launched in 2020, Orda is a cloud-based restaurant management system provider that hopes to provide one operating system to power African restaurants. Before Orda, a small food business owner could spend up to four hours a day reconciling transactions while trying to figure out losses. In the process we noticed that food business owners were not fully integrated with local payment solutions, online sales channels, and logistic providers. We listened to everything, from how African restaurants reconcile inventory, how customers pay, to how they handle logistics and more.
