Moniepoint Acquires Orda to Empower Restaurant POS
🍔 Meet Orda
-
Orda builds a cloud-based operating system designed specifically for African restaurants and food businesses.
-
Fintech giant Moniepoint has just completed a 100% acquisition of the company.
🥘 The Offline Gap
-
Restaurant owners in Africa often have to juggle separate systems for menus, deliveries, and payments. This fragmentation usually leads to manual errors and lost cash.
-
The food sector on the continent is a multi-billion dollar market, yet a huge portion of it remains offline and underserved by traditional banking.
🍳 How It Works
-
Orda offers an all-in-one software that connects the kitchen, the storefront, and delivery apps like Chowdeck into a single dashboard.
-
The team built the tech with a "kitchen-first" logic. It’s designed to handle complex local payment types and keep running even when the internet is spotty.
🚀 The Big Picture
-
Orda will become part of the Moniebook platform, Moniepoint’s all-in-one Point-of-Sale (POS) and business management platform.
-
Moniepoint plans to integrate Orda’s tech to offer credit and working capital specifically for restaurant expansion.
