Restaurants nationwide recognize that more of their customers are placing orders online. For small restaurants that don’t have the time or money to integrate online ordering platforms into their own websites, there’s Canton-based LocalUp LLC, which recently received a $1.5 million investment, reports the Baltimore Sun.
Three years ago, the company rebooted, rebranded and relocated to Baltimore, where it now employs 30 people. Consumers place an order on one of LocalUp’s sites, and restaurants receive emails or faxes with the details. The company makes money by charging restaurants a commission for each online order placed through EatBmore and its other sites across the country. [more]
Right now, LocalUp’s strategy is to focus its attention on smaller cities. It has signed up more than 1,000 restaurants thus far. In Baltimore, 60 restaurants use EatBmore.com.
