UpperEat - "Digital platform connecting restaurants & companies saving them time and money"

+ Describe your ideal collaborative partner or partners.

I'm interested to learn if there are any government programs to support my idea. I am looking for partners like business travel agencies, tour operators, tourism offices... Looking for investment as well.

+ What is the most immediate or most pressing challenge you're facing right now?

Escaling the business to other countries.

+ What is it about your idea that makes you feel good?

We have a win-win project for both parties (we are the first company & digital platform doing this!):

  • Restaurants: need to increase their reservations during weekdays and their profits. They are not good sellers. We solve this problem commercializing them to the B2B channels, making them part of the same brand : Executive Restaurants of the World, so they have the power of a group instead of individual strength.
  • Companies (executive assistants & board of directors): the industry of restaurants is too fragmented. We unify all the contact, channeling all its operations through us, being the first provider of restaurants: from search, booking, to centralized billing, loyalty points and an excellent experience. This is what companies are looking for.

+ What makes your idea innovative? Why has no one ever done it before?

  • We are the first brand agglutinating a selection of corporate restaurants, externalising their sales team with us (as B2B channels are expensive to reach by themselves).
  • We have the first digital platform connecting this selection directly with corporate cliens (board of directos & executive assistants).

No one has done it before our way. Many have tried other ways, but they couldn't. Why? Because the sector is fragmented, traditional, restaurants are not digitalized and don't have sales people.

+ Who will benefit the most from your idea?

Both benefit:

  • Restaurants reach B2B channels, so they increase 200% of their revenue during weekdays.
  • Companies reduce their costs (up to 40% of time & money), becoming their unique provider of restaurants.

+ Ideally, when would you launch this idea?

I've already launched my idea

+ Indicate which UN goals your idea relates to?

N/A

+ At Sigmund, we are interested in ideas at the intersection of People, Planet, and Profit. How does your idea relate to these three categories?

  • We are the biggest partnership of restaurants in Spain right now. We have more than 50 restaurants in where we do all sales and represent them, giving them the tools to increase their revenue: together we go further.
  • Companies reduce their carbon footprint, not having to visit all restaurants where they want to organise a lunch/dinner. Through our platform they can visit them online and they have ALL the info.
  • We are as well doing partnerships with companies like TooGoodtogo, Gasol Foundation and others, so we fight against hunger, responsible consumption...
