AccorHotels acquires restaurant booking platform
AccorHotels today announces that it has completed the acquisition of table reservation system, ResDiary.
Established in Glasgow in 2004, the company has over 100 staff based in six countries.
ResDiary is well established in the Asia Pacific region and the UK, and has a footprint in 60 countries globally, seating 166m diners a year in over 8,600 venues. The company has generated profits for six years.
ResDiary provides venues with a high-end table management solution, using technology that optimises their food and beverage revenues and helps control operational costs.
Its yield and channel management tools aim to help restaurateurs maximise revenues, while limiting booking fees by controlling availability displayed on third-party channels.
Sébastien Bazin, chairman and CEO at AccorHotels, said: “I am delighted to see ResDiary join the range of services of the group. Our ambition is to support ResDiary in its global expansion, consolidating its scale, and benefitting from its expertise to provide multiple attractive offers to our guests.
“This acquisition completes recent investments of AccorHotels in the food and beverage industry. It fully supports the group’s ambition to increase touchpoints with a fast-growing customer base.”
Mike Conyers, ResDiary co-founder and CEO, added: “We have had a very successful relationship with AccorHotels in Asia Pacific, and all the ResDiary team is thrilled to join the group. We are looking forward to expanding our service on a more global level with AccorHotels.”
