LaFourchette operates a consumer-facing mobile and online service for finding and booking restaurants and a SaaS product that enables restaurants to manage bookings, build CRM databases, and run yield management with discounts. The company offers free-of-charge consumer bookings with discounts typically between -20% and -50% and maintains a catalog of over 2,000 discounts in about twenty major cities. As a pioneer in Europe, LaFourchette works with about 11,000 partner restaurants and reports one booking every second on its websites and mobile applications. In 2011 the platform generated over €100 million in revenues for partner restaurants and the company aims to reach €500 million within the next three years. LaFourchette has grown its headcount from fewer than 10 employees in 2008 to about 150 today. Upcoming product plans include a freemium offer for partner restaurants and a next-generation mobile and online consumer booking platform, alongside continued strengthening of its operational structure.
