Company Summary

Cloosiv is an order-ahead app for independent coffee shops. We believe that coffee is the most overlooked vertical in retail - Americans buy over 200m cups of coffee every day, and Starbucks only accounts for 2.5% of those sales. That said, Starbucks operates the most used payment app in the country, processing more transactions than Apple Pay and Google Pay, but a replicable product for the 50,000 independent coffee shops to compete.

Team
