We are thrilled to back the Restorando team and look forward to working with them as they continue to grow and expand.”

“Our focus over the past two years has been to take a business model that as been highly successful in other geographies, improve on it through cloud and mobile technology and superior customer service and then roll it out in a limited number of markets to prove it’s success. We have shown the model works, and now we are ready to expand,” said Frank Martin, CEO of Restorando. “Having the support of this group of investors, all of whom have experience investing and building other successful companies in Latin America, is truly amazing. This round not only gives us access to exceptional advisors, but will be provide us with the resources to scale Restorando throughout the region.”
