How Is It Different From Other Catering Services?

 In July 2018, ezCater acquired GoCater, a Paris-based online catering platform and exhibited international expansion. Along with that, the recent acquisition of Monkey Group, a cloud platform for take-out, delivery, and catering reestablished the company’s position as the market leader in catering management software. EzCater has worked with more than 60,000 restaurants and caterers in different parts of the United States. Nonetheless, the company has never worked directly with food or made any deliveries on its own. As far as the future is concerned, the company further aims to accelerate its international expansion with potential merger and acquirement in the coming time. Additionally, the company will also take into consideration feasible public offerings.
