170,000 cafeterias globally, and the retail sector more broadly, struggle with labour shortage and are keen to improve the customer experience due to competition with online ordering. Deligo provides the most simple, cost efficient and reliable automated checkout solution for cafeterias on the market today. If this sounds interesting please get in touch!
About Deligo:
We build magical checkout experiences that make daily needs more accessible. Standing in line to pay is the most useless and frustrating part of any retail experience. We design checkout solutions to give customers back their time with a touch of magic. We enable retailers to improve their customers’ experience and to serve customers where cashier assisted checkout is prohibitively expensive.
Today we serve dozens of cafeterias across Europe with an ambition to scale globally and build solutions for other retail use cases. We are a repeat founding team with VC backing.
