UK – Australia-based restaurant platform EatClub has successfully raised US$18.2 million in a Series A funding round, enabling its recent expansion into the competitive UK market.

Led by Co:Act Capital, the investment round also saw participation from Marbruck, Gandel Invest, and Platform Advisory, reflecting strong investor confidence in EatClub’s innovative business model and growth potential.

EatClub’s distinctive pricing strategy, which offers dynamic discounts on quality restaurant meals to reduce food waste and optimize dining capacity, is set to make a significant impact on London’s vibrant hospitality scene.

By connecting consumers with restaurants through an easy-to-use platform, EatClub helps venues fill unsold tables during off-peak hours while providing diners with attractive savings, creating a win-win scenario that benefits both businesses and customers.

The fresh capital injection will support EatClub’s efforts to scale operations, enhance technology infrastructure, and expand its restaurant partnerships across London and other key UK cities.

The company aims to leverage its proven success in Australia, where it has helped thousands of restaurants increase revenue and reduce waste, to establish a strong foothold in the UK’s diverse and fast-growing dining market.

EatClub’s CEO highlighted the strategic importance of the UK launch, stating, “London represents one of the world’s most dynamic food scenes, and we are excited to bring our sustainable, value-driven dining model to this market.”

“Our platform not only helps restaurants improve profitability but also aligns with growing consumer demand for flexible and affordable dining options.”

The investment round’s lead investor, Co:Act Capital, emphasized their commitment to supporting innovative hospitality technology ventures that address industry challenges such as food waste and operational inefficiencies.

The involvement of Marbruck, Gandel Invest, and Platform Advisory further strengthens EatClub’s position as a promising disruptor in the restaurant technology space.

As the hospitality sector continues to recover and adapt post-pandemic, platforms like EatClub are playing a pivotal role in reshaping how restaurants manage demand and engage with customers.

The company’s expansion into the UK underscores the growing global appetite for technology-driven solutions that enhance sustainability and profitability in the foodservice industry.
