Apparently TechCrunch HQ is not the only entity that hates to deal with coordination of lunch.
Today ZeroCater, launch, which looks to help make your Office lunch time as painless as possible by handling all the logistics for you (see our previous coverage), announces that it raised $ 1.5 million.
This new round — in addition to the earlier investment from Y Combinator and StartFund (in fact, SV Angel and Yuri Milner, that make up the StartFund, have made additional investments). Here's the complete list of investors that includes some big names:
Keith Rabois
Paul Buchheit
Vaizra International
Yuri Milner & Felix Shpilman
SV Angel
Start Foundation
Stewart Alsop
Justin Kan
Emmett shear
Othman Laraki
Gabor Cselle
Mark Friedgan
Alexander Goldstein
Starling enterprises
ZeroCater for the promise is to eliminate the hassle of ordering lunch for employees on a regular basis. Company sign up, tell ZeroCater how many mouth, feeding and if anyone has special dietary requests, then lets you organize the rest ZeroCater. Start works deals with local restaurants to ensure quick delivery — and because ZeroCater can guarantee the size of a large order, high-end restaurants that do not offer delivery often usually participate. ZeroCater also makes every effort to rotate between different restaurants, so you don't get sick is the same thing over and over again.
The service is currently available in the San Francisco Bay area, and co-founder of Arram Sabeti said that plans to use this money to distribute to other areas. Next up: New York City.
