Tarro was born out of our personal struggles running a take-out restaurant for 10+ years. We know first-hand that small restaurant owners work far too hard to earn razor-thin margins. On top of that, enterprise software vendors offer technology solutions that don’t always work for small restaurants. At Tarro, we use a combination of bits (technology) and atoms (real people) to solve real-world problems facing restaurants. Today, we’ve helped more than 1,800 restaurant owners increase profits and secure a better future for their families. As we’ve grown, our founding principle has never changed: we aim to help independent restaurant owners realize their dreams. Tarro has achieved significant growth over the past two years, growing annual re-occurring revenue by almost 4x to $46 million and quadrupling our customer base of mom-and-pop restaurants.

Glambot was founded by a tried-and-true makeup hoarder. She loves makeup and all the glamour it represents. Trying the various online makeup bartering and trading communities, she experienced the major downsides of these communities, such as swap lifting, counterfeits, items arriving damaged in the mail, or worst of all- items in unusable condition. Instead of abandoning the makeup community entirely, she decided to improve and unite it! In May 2013, Glambot quickly grew to become the online destination for the largest collection of rare, limited edition and discontinued items from highly sought and coveted makeup brands. So come on and experience the glam, since we add new items daily! Sellers use the website to estimate how much they'll receive on their items. They ship their items with a prepaid label and we make an offer on their items, which they can accept cash or Glambucks (credit) for future items. Buyers purchase makeup anywhere from 10-50% off retail prices, can enjoy a free 14 day return policy, and free domestic shipping when purchasing over $30, while international customers get free shipping over $60.

In 2020, close friends and co-founders Joe Welch and Zach Feinberg designed and patented a 187ml bottle to showcase the elegance and beauty of wine in order to share it with the world. With the help of world renowned winemakers, they created In Good Taste, the most robust portfolio of by the glass wines ever created. We've sold 2million bottles over the past 2 years online making us one of the fastest growing wineries in America.
Underground Cellar is an exciting new online wine marketplace to discover, buy, and store premium wines. Buyers love that over half of the bottles they buy are randomly swapped-out for free to rare and private-stash bottles from prestigious wineries; and they can store up to 500 bottles for free in our "Cloud Cellar" in Napa Valley. But the real benefit is that we provide wineries a sustainable new sales channel that never uses discounts. This allows them to quickly sell wine without bastardizing their pricing structure or harming their brand image.
