Orquest provides effective workforce planning and management based on cutting-edge algorithms, advanced data analytics and artificial intelligence, designed specifically for the Retail and Quick Service Restaurant industry. With this round, the company aims to strengthen its international expansion in the Middle East, Europe and the Americas.
The Madrid-based company, a spinoff of the company Decide and accelerated by Lanzadera since January of this year, was founded by Manuel del Barrio, Eugenio Martín, Javier Lafuente and Alberto del Barrio in 2019. Its software is currently deployed in 24 countries, it has more than 1,800 points of sale and its clients include companies such as Zara, McDonald’s, Etam and Norauto, among others.
“The new injection is key to our international growth, we are focused on Europe, Middle East, and America and we want to grow in talent and capacity to strengthen our international growth strategy that will allow us to establish ourselves as a global company,” said Alberto del Barrio CEO of Orquest.
Orquest’s clients are large and medium-sized retail or Quick Service Restaurant companies to whom it provides an accurate prediction of in-store activity thanks to Artificial Intelligence, to subsequently generate optimal staff planning that guarantees an increase in employee productivity and maximises sales by improving customer service.
