William Hsu, Co-Founder and Partner, Mucker Capital: “The hospitality, food and beverage industry has been permanently transformed as a result of the pandemic. There has been an explosion in the scale of technologies and software serving the industry, with over $25B in venture capital invested just in the last 5 years.This has created a huge area of opportunity for a new platform to emerge in the space, bringing order, interoperability and data consistency, allowing SMEs operating in this space to really take advantage of all the the disparate, silo-based applications deployed throughout the industry.”
“In just two years, ShoppinPal has created an API platform to meet this demand that works with over 100 applications and software systems across 10,000 customers and partners in North America, Canada, Europe, Australia and NZ. The company has experienced a 5X revenue growth in the last 6 months as a result.
Sriram Subramanian, Founder and CEO, ShoppinPal: “Consumer habits are changing, so the way companies operate to ensure they keep up is critical. With ShoppinPal, app providers can offer integrations as a built-in experience while avoiding sharing sensitive PII customer data outside their walls. We provide full flexibility to deploy in customer environments and provide real-time monitoring and scaling support so app vendors’ sales and support teams don’t have to worry about integrations at all.”
“The pandemic presented a number of challenges for food and drink, hospitality and retail – arguably more than any other sector. What makes me proud is how our technology has played a central role in enabling 40,000 business owners to adapt quickly to the changing landscape. We’ve given them the tools to continue growing their business. Social impact has always been an important part of ShoppinPal’s core principles,” added Subramanian.
