Overview

Huddlebuy runs a group-buying marketplace that offers discounts to small businesses, positioning itself as a 'Groupon-for-small-businesses'. The site typically runs 10–15 deals at a time and completes deals only after they hit a tipping point that averages around 3–5 buyers per deal. Recent offers listed on the site have included KashFlow for online accounting software and an Epson 4-in-1 printer. The company also provides a 'request a deal' option, where businesses can register interest in expired or new deals and Huddlebuy's sales team attempts to secure them. Huddlebuy was founded by Per Larsen (ex-Apple), Chieu Cao (ex-Microsoft) and Saurav Chopra (ex-Deloite/Yahoo!) and is UK-based. The company recently raised external capital, which it can use to expand its deal pipeline and sales efforts.
