Team Cartwheel is on fire! Adding Toast to their roster of collaborators, which includes Uber and Square, shows just how much they're reshaping food delivery. Founders Alex Vasilkin, Dan Zamylin, and Magdim Metshin are all operators themselves and understand the solutions the restaurant industry needs. Since we first invested in 2021, Cartwheel has seamlessly integrated their product into every facet of restaurant delivery through strategic partnerships – from point-of-sale software to marketplaces and delivery partners. We're excited for the future.
