Delivery management software streamlines order flow and improves delivery capabilities
Pizza Roboto, also known as Mamma Ramona’s Restaurant, has announced a strategic partnership with Cartwheel, the leading enterprise delivery management platform, to power delivery operations for all current and planned locations of the Mamma Ramona’s chain.
Founded by tech pioneer Andrew Simmons, Pizza Roboto is reshaping dining with technology. The company is on a mission to modernize every aspect of Mamma Ramona’s restaurants, from point-of-sale and loyalty system software, to the ovens used to cook pizza, to front of house operations, including robots that aid in tableside delivery.
This partnership with Cartwheel marks a significant milestone in the company’s mission to build the future of restaurant delivery through digital solutions, streamlined integrations and automation.
Cartwheel’s Hybrid Delivery technology, integrated directly with Mamma Ramona’s POS system, empowers the chain to tap into local, independent and delivery service providers (DSPs), as well as a vast network of national third-party delivery drivers. With a seamless flow between order and delivery management, Cartwheel enables Mamma Ramona’s to optimize their delivery operations with tech-led solutions.
“Cartwheel’s sophisticated technology and interoperability with existing systems aligns perfectly with our vision for Mamma Ramona’s,” said Simmons. “The flexibility to prioritize different delivery models enables us to support local delivery partners, which we believe provides customers with an even better pizza delivery experience.”
Cartwheel’s technology powers automatic order routing and optimization, driver tracking in real time, and user-friendly customer interaction functionality. The platform offers a customizable, branded order tracking interface, enabling restaurants to increase brand awareness and drive customer loyalty.
“We are thrilled to partner with Pizza Roboto and Andrew Simmons, a true pioneer in the world of restaurant automation and digital solutions,” said Alex Vasilkin, co-founder and CEO, Cartwheel. “Cartwheel has already piloted several integrations with Mamma Ramona’s that further enhance our joint capabilities, and we are proud to be supporting the restaurant’s expansion from a delivery management perspective.”
Mamma Ramona’s has plans to establish 24 new restaurants within the next 12 months, with locations in Oceanside, California; San Diego, California; and Philadelphia, Pennsylvania slated in 2023. The chain’s partnership with Cartwheel promises to bring a new level of efficiency and innovation to the world of pizza delivery, across these locations and beyond.
To help fund its expansion, Pizza Roboto has launched a subscription-based crowdfunding program which allows consumers to share in the revenue of the chain’s automated innovations. Cartwheel is an early investor in this concept. To learn more about the program, visit https://pizzaroboto.io.

Cartwheel is an on-demand delivery management platform for restaurants and beyond.
The company was founded in 2012 as a delivery restaurant. After it quickly grew to become one of the most popular delivery operations in Los Angeles, the founders decided to focus solely on the delivery outsourcing business. When the team realized there was no software solution to meet all of their needs, they decided to build it themselves.
Cartwheel offers turnkey solutions for in-house delivery operations, including an easy-to-use driver app, sophisticated dispatch tools for managers, and user-friendly customer interaction functionality.
To date, Cartwheel has powered deliveries for top brands including Portillo’s (also a Cartwheel investor), P.F. Chang’s, Potbelly, and more.
The company is headquartered in Los Angeles. For more information, visit www.trycartwheel.com.
