The company that owns Harvester, O’Neills and Toby Carvery is rolling out cloud computing across the whole group. Mitchells & Butlers, the largest restaurant and pub operator in the UK, has partnered with Fujitsu to extend networked SaaS to its 1,600 branches.

Mike Sackman, chief information officer at Mitchells & Butlers said:

"Customers will be able to book tables, and place orders including takeaways from their smartphones, and access public wifi in our branches. There is a revolution in what our customers want to be able to do with their own technology. We will also be able to offer much more personalised promotion and marketing to them."
