Food delivery company Just Eat bought restaurant software start-up Flyt for £22m ($28m). The deal is the latest in a string of deals between tech firms and food companies to offer online ordering services. The software was aimed at integrating a restaurant company’s point of sale devices with third-party services. Flyt said it could improve a customer’s experience of the restaurant and make the restaurant run more efficiently by removing the need for manual processes and cutting waiting times. Specifically, Flyt says its technology platform removes the need for manual restaurant processes, reduces driver wait times in restaurants and eliminates human error in order processing. It said despite the Just East deal it would continue as a standalone brand.
