Funding Announcements

"NearSt’s funding comes at a time of seismic shifts in how we shop and what it means to be a retailer."

"As retail businesses from across the globe recover from the impact of Covid-19, trading online has gone from being a ‘nice-to-have’ to a ‘must-have’ for retailers. Digitising back office operations is a critical step towards transitioning to online commerce – and through investing in high growth, cloud solutions like Brightpearl, we are committed to supporting our customers to not only make that switch quickly and easily, but to also grow and compete"

"We make branded stickers that make tasks like check in, ordering food/drink and safety inspections as quick and simple as a contactless payment. We give businesses everything they need to solve problems in physical spaces, take payments and build better relationships with their customers. Our goal is to redefine how people interact with the world around them without them having to download an app or create an account."

"2020 sent shockwaves through the high street, and nothing will ever be the same. Having worked in retail for 20 years, this has made me even more ambitious with our plans for growth over the next 18 months."
