Snappy Shopper has secured a place in the inaugural Sunday Times Scotland Fast 50, recognising the Dundee-founded business as one of the UK’s fastest-growing private companies.
The recognition comes as Snappy Group, the retail technology business behind Snappy Shopper, surpasses 20m customer orders and has generated more than half a billion pounds in retailer sales.
More than 2,000 convenience stores partner with Snappy Group in hundreds of towns and cities across the UK, using the platform to reach more customers and grow their businesses.
The new list celebrates Scotland’s fastest growing private companies, recognising businesses achieving “exceptional growth at scale and speed,” Snappy Shopper said.
The scale of the milestone is significant, with 20m grocery orders equating to around 100,000 tonnes of shopping. At an average delivery time of 45 minutes, 20m deliveries would take more than 1,700 years to complete.
Mike Callachan, CEO, said: “Processing 20m orders is an incredible milestone for our business and represents 20m occasions where local retailers have been able to serve their communities through technology. Every order reflects the trust placed in our platform by both retailers and customers and we’re incredibly proud of the impact we’ve helped create.
“To be recognised in the inaugural Fast 50 list is a fantastic achievement for everyone at Snappy. We’ve grown from a Dundee start-up into a business supporting thousands of retailers across the UK, but our ambition remains the same: help convenience retailers embrace technology, compete in a digital world and continue serving their local communities.”
