Adyen expands partnership with Affirm to UK
Adyen has expanded its alliance with Affirm to the UK, enabling merchants to offer a range of pay-over-time plans to their customers.

Adyen UK managing director Nicole Olbe said: 'Adyen customers all over the globe are demanding best-in-class payment experiences to boost business and drive customer engagement, which is why we are expanding our partnership with Affirm into the U.K.
'We've seen how Affirm's consumer-first payment options accelerate growth for our U.S. and Canadian merchants and help them meet customers' individual needs at checkout. We're excited to unlock greater opportunities for U.K. merchants, and greater flexibility for consumers, together with Affirm.'
Affirm VP and UK country manager Ruth Spratt stated: "Businesses across many sectors in the U.K. rely on Adyen to drive growth; now they can benefit by offering Affirm's more flexible, transparent, and long-term pay-over-time options to their customers.
'By deepening our partnership with Adyen, we look forward to helping more merchants to grow their business, and more consumers pay over time on a schedule that works best for them, and always without any late or hidden fees."
In November 2024, Affirm expanded to the region with the launch of Affirm UK with the regulatory approval by the Financial Conduct Authority.
In December 2024, the partnership further expanded to include Adyen for Platforms customers in the US and Canada.
Additionally, Adyen introduced Adyen Uplift, an AI-powered suite designed to optimise payment processes.

Olymel to build state-of-the-art integrated plant in Trois-Rivières
BOUCHERVILLE, QC, June 10, 2025 /CNW/ - Olymel, the Canadian leader in the production, processing and distribution of pork and poultry meats, today announced the construction of a major expansion of its La Fernandière plant in Trois-Rivières, a major investment of $142 million that will allow Olymel to better serve its customers in Canada and abroad. The work will begin in the next few days, with the start of operations scheduled for spring 2026. The project objectives Olymel is pursuing several objectives with this project and significant gains are expected in the first year of operation. The plant, which essentially manufactures sausages at the present time, will expand production to include a wider range of pork and poultry products. It will also be converted into an integrated facility where products can be fully processed and packaged on site, thus reducing the transport of raw materials, better aligning processes, and strengthening the company's productivity. Finally, this new plant will considerably increase Olymel's production capacity at a time when the organization is aiming to strengthen the positioning of its products across Canada. "We're very proud to announce this major expansion of our Trois-Rivières plant. It's a big step forward for Olymel. Having this state-of-the-art plant will create new possibilities for expansion and significantly improve our efficiency, which is central to our company's performance. The project is perfectly aligned with our strategy of capitalizing on the creation of value-added products made with meat of superior quality that's produced by local farmers," declared Yanick Gervais, CEO of Olymel. A technological trailblazer in Quebec's agri-food industry Innovation will be at the core of the project, with new systems optimized by artificial intelligence. The connectivity of all the equipment and components will be used to ensure optimized operations management. The technologies include a unique industrial battery system, a continuous cooking line, completely autonomous operations (slicing, packaging, boxing and palletizing), and autonomous vehicles, all of which are points of innovation for the Canadian agri-food sector. The modernization of operations will result in more consistent production, to better meet the needs of our customers here and abroad. State-of-the-art equipment will allow the plant to utilize the latest packaging technology, for increased flexibility that fosters the use of eco-friendly solutions. By allying these technologies with our workers' expertise, we will maximize our operational efficiency while placing a premium on the knowledge and experience of our teams. Finally, the plant will serve as an innovation hub for new artificial intelligence solutions that Olymel can deploy elsewhere in its network, with the goal of increasing its productivity and optimizing its operations. A comprehensive approach to sustainable development In terms of occupational health and safety, the new ergonomic equipment will reduce the number of physically demanding tasks for employees, improve employee comfort at operating stations, and free up workers so that they can focus on tasks requiring more precision. Everything in the project was designed to optimize energy consumption, with measures that include heat recovery, net–zero water-based cooking, and a heat exchanger to recover heat from wastewater. On-site industrial batteries will be used to store energy and better manage the plant's power consumption when the grid is at peak demand. The ham cooking systems will utilize closed-circuit water management, which saves much more energy and water. In addition, a primary and secondary water treatment plant will be built on site, along with the necessary retention pond, to manage stormwater runoff. Finally, reduced greenhouse gas emissions from transportation and the improved management of natural gas, refrigerants, electricity, and residual materials will all result in environmental gains. A project that drives prosperity in the Mauricie region Locally, the plant will generate new economic opportunities, including the creation of some 50 direct jobs—bringing the total number of employees up to 400—and many indirect jobs. To help power Quebec's economy, the vast majority of building materials chosen will be made in Quebec. The contractor chosen for the construction work, Construction Bertrand Dionne, is from Drummondville, and the palletizing and boxing services will be designed by Premier Tech, a company from Rivière-du-Loup. Parallel to this project, and with a view to optimizing its operations and capturing the full benefit of the new plant, Olymel will permanently close its Anjou facility (140 employees) and its Cap-de-la-Madeleine facility (150 employees) in spring 2026. All personnel will be offered positions in neighbouring Olymel plants, particularly the newly built facility, which will be located a dozen kilometres from the Cap-de-la-Madeleine plant. About Olymel Olymel is Canada's leader in production, processing and distribution of pork and poultry meats. Its mission is to feed the world with passion and with products of the highest quality. The company has production and processing facilities in Quebec, Ontario, Alberta, Saskatchewan and New Brunswick, and employs over 12,000 people. It has annual sales of around $4.5 billion. The company markets its products mainly under the Olymel, Pinty's, La Fernandière, Lafleur and Flamingo brands. SOURCE Olymel l.p.

Amsterdam-based Tebi Announces €30 Million Investment Led by Alphabet growth fund CapitalG to transform hospitality operations
AMSTERDAM--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Tebi, the Amsterdam-based startup developing an all-in-one financial operating system for hospitality, today announced a €30 million investment led by Alphabet independent growth fund CapitalG, with participation from existing investor Index Ventures. This follows Tebi's €20 million Series A announced just six months ago and brings the company's total funding to €56 million. The financing reflects the company's momentum across product innovation, hiring and expansion into new markets. The investment will support Tebi's continued growth in these key areas of focus. The company was founded in 2021 by technical alumni from Adyen, a €45B Dutch company, including serial entrepreneur Arnout Schuijff as CEO and Rob Vonk as CTO. Tebi is the third company co-founded by Schuijff, who previously served as Adyen's longtime CTO and co-founder. Aki Tas, former head of business strategy and operations at Notion, joined last fall as COO to lead the product, marketing, and foundation teams, and Patrick Studener, former COO at Wolt (now part of Doordash) and previous head of European expansion at Uber, joined at the beginning of the year as CCO to lead operational teams. The investment will fuel Tebi's mission to transform operations for hospitality businesses worldwide. Until now, businesses have had to cobble together difficult-to-use solutions that lack key features, handle back-office tasks slowly and manually, and make it difficult to assess business performance. Tebi is rethinking hospitality technology from the ground-up, unifying the point of sale, payments, inventory management, a kitchen display system, reservations, and QR ordering functionality through an intuitive, mobile-first platform built on an accounting backbone. By being built around the point of sale, Tebi can coordinate both operations and finances for complex hospitality businesses. AI-enabled onboarding enables businesses to get started quickly, while the comprehensive platform simplifies and unifies workflows and makes key business metrics easily viewable. Merchants across the Netherlands are already processing nine figures of payments annually on the platform. With this new investment, Tebi plans to accelerate product development, expand its reach globally, and grow its team. Beginning today, Tebi will also begin serving the UK market, marking the beginning of a broader global expansion strategy (UK customers can find Tebi at "Hospitality businesses are the lifeblood of our communities, yet they've been underserved by technology, especially here in Europe," said Arnout Schuijff, co-founder and CEO of Tebi. "No one opens a restaurant or store because they love paperwork and integrating tools; they do it for the passion of serving people. It's a privilege to build a world-class team devoted to empowering European business owners to free up time to focus on the craft and customers they cherish.' 'We are thrilled to partner with Tebi as they build the operating system for hospitality businesses,' said Alex Nichols, Partner at CapitalG. 'Even though most small business front and back office workflows revolve around payments, three-quarters of Europe's SMB payments are disconnected from software. By unifying these disjointed systems, Tebi is bringing greater efficiency and visibility to small business owners' daily work. Arnout and his team combine focused customer centricity, speed, and unique founder-market fit. We couldn't imagine a better team to pursue this massive opportunity.' "Moving from disconnected systems – our previous POS software, a separate reservations platform, paper kitchen tickets, and a standalone payments provider – to Tebi's single integrated platform led us to embrace a new mindset at Zoldering. We approached it as if we were starting fresh, letting go of old habits to realize a seamless workflow from reservation to service to kitchen. Tebi has not just replaced our old systems; it has enabled a new way of working by unifying our data, streamlining communication between front and back of house, and offering the flexibility to adapt workflows to our specific needs – exactly what's required to maintain the standards expected of a Michelin-starred restaurant,' said Tomas and Job from Zoldering. Tebi currently employs 35 people and is planning to double its headcount by the end of the year with roles open in Amsterdam and London. About Tebi Tebi is an all-in-one financial operating system for independent hospitality businesses. Founded in 2021, Tebi provides a comprehensive, mobile-first solution that includes point of sale, integrated payments, a kitchen display system, reservations, inventory management, QR ordering, and bookkeeping.
