Scalefast Ranked No. 120 Fastest Growing Company in North America on Deloitte's 2018 Technology Fast 500™Scalefast, a global digital eCommerce solution, today announced it ranked No. 120 on Deloitte's Technology Fast 500™, a ranking of the 500 fastest growing technology, media, telecommunications, life sciences and energy tech companies in North America. Scalefast experienced 959% revenue growth from fiscal year 2014 to fiscal year 2017. Scalefast's CEO and Founder Nicolas Stehle credits this revenue growth to the accelerated globalization of eCommerce paired with the desire by brands to regain control of their customers' shopping journey by selling directly to the consumer. "Brands today have immense potential to boost sales by reaching global consumers via their brand-owned online storefront but, creating the localized and personalized shopping experience that consumers have come to expect poses many challenges. Brands are realizing that by teaming up with an eCommerce partner with an ecosystem that comprises all aspects of eCommerce, they are able to scale their direct-to-consumer channel faster, and without the restrictions and risks they would encounter by trying to do it themselves or with other online sales channels." "Congratulations to the Deloitte (News - Alert) 2018 Technology Fast 500 winners on this impressive achievement," said Sadra Shirai, vice chairman, Deloitte LLP, and U.S. technology, media and telecommunications leader. "These companies are innovators who have converted their disruptive ideas into products, services and experiences that can captivate new customers and drive remarkable growth." This recognition honors Scalefast's rapid growth over the past three years, marked by milestones including raising funding to further its global eCommerce offering and advanced business intelligence technology, launching over 30 major product launches for some of the world's most iconic brands, and exceeding 17 million orders processed amongst consumers in over 240 countries and territories. Scalefast also grew its team by 130 percent and reached a technological milestone in which the Scalefast Commerce Cloud can now sustain over 200 orders per second.
