Watermelon Ecosystem
Watermelon Ecosystem is a Dubai-based B2B platform for the food and beverage industry that connects restaurants, hotels, cafes and caterers with local and global suppliers. Founded in 2020 by former restaurateur Omar AlShamsi, it bundles a supplier marketplace, cloud POS, analytics and embedded financing into one system so F&B operators can consolidate ordering, cut purchasing time and paperwork, manage inventory and access working capital. The company raised a $4 million Series A in 2024 at a $29 million post-money valuation.
