Restaurant Management Software Market Growth & Trends

The global restaurant management software market size is estimated to reach USD 14.70 million by 2030, registering to grow at a CAGR of 17.4% from 2025 to 2030 according to a new report by Grand View Research, Inc. The market is expected to witness significant growth owing to the growing internet and smartphone penetration rate, the rising preference for Point-of-Sale (POS) technology, and the restaurants’ strong emphasis on making data-driven decisions for businesses.

Moreover, the growing focus of companies to improve client-server interaction with an IoT-based system has encouraged them to opt for advanced and custom high-performance message infrastructure solutions. Thus, more informed decisions are made based on the insights provided by the software, thereby increasing the profitability of the restaurant. With growing investments in technology in the restaurant industry, restaurant management software providers are expected to witness promising growth opportunities over the forecast period.

In recent years, automation has played an important role in the transformation of the restaurant industry. The growing need to deliver enhanced customer experiences has increased the adoption of the latest technologies that could simplify food ordering, delivery, and transaction processes for customers. The use of cashless payment mobile apps and wallets, QR-code menus, and other touchless payments is poised to become more mainstream over the forecast period. Several restaurant owners have started investing heavily in kitchen automation solutions to deliver consistent customer experience and achieve efficiency across all business operations. This trend is also expected to drive market growth.

Several vendors are offering a myriad of restaurant management software solutions that can streamline the operations of restaurants. Although several vendors offer standalone restaurant solutions, these solutions do not allow unified interaction with other systems already deployed by restaurants. As a result, restaurateurs end up with different systems operating in the same business environment but having limited connectivity with each other, which restricts the mutual sharing of information. This is driving the demand for a unified software platform that can cater to all the major software applications required by a restaurant, or can integrate easily with other prominent software solutions. These factors would further drive the industry’s growth.
