AUSTIN, TX (January 28, 2026) - The Texas Restaurant Association (TRA) is proud to announce a new partnership with Owner.com, a top rated software in restaurant tech in the USA. Owner.com is an AI-powered online growth engine that helps restaurants grow direct sales, strengthen guest relationships, and increase profitability.
Through this partnership, TRA members will gain access to Owner.com's platform which gives independent restaurant owners the same digital capabilities as the biggest restaurant corporations. Owner.com helps operators attract new guests online, increase repeat business, and build long-term brand loyalty.
"Independent restaurants and multi-unit operators alike are navigating an increasingly competitive and digital-first marketplace," said President & CEO of the Texas Restaurant Association, Emily Williams Knight, Ed.D. "This partnership with Owner.com gives our members access to a proven system that helps them increase their online sales, grow margins, and own their customer relationships-all critical priorities for today's restaurant operators."
Owner.com provides restaurants with an online growth system powered by AI. Owner.com uses AI to continuously improve SEO, marketing, and online ordering to grow first-party orders. Unlike other companies that force restaurant owners to master their software to see results, Owner is designed as a proven system with minimal training. It powers everything restaurants need to be successful: websites, online ordering, CRM, mobile app, and more.
"We're excited to partner with the Texas Restaurant Association to support the restaurants that power Texas communities," said Vice President of Partnerships at Owner.com, Tina Glickman. "Our mission is to help more independent restaurant owners win online, and working with TRA allows us to bring our proven system to more operators who are looking to grow sustainably and profitably."
This partnership aligns with TRA's ongoing commitment to providing meaningful resources, advocacy, and business solutions to its members. By collaborating with innovative partners like Owner.com, the association continues to expand the value of membership while helping restaurants adapt to evolving consumer expectations and technology trends.
TRA members will receive exclusive access to Owner.com resources, education, and preferred offerings designed to help them maximize their digital strategy and drive long-term success.
