Parkpnp secure €500k investment to roll-out employee parking system

Office parking automation software to roll-out across US & Europe

 

Award winning digital parking company Parkpnp has announced a new investment of €500k to launch their ParkOffice product which smartly maximises the use of limited company parking. ParkOffice automates employee parking, allowing parking professionals to reduce their workload and spend in relation to office parking management. The funding will see Parkpnp roll out their new SaaS product across Europe & the US.

 

Having identified the need for a product which allowed companies to increase the amount of parking available to staff, ParkOffice’s core feature allows staff to release assigned parking spaces when they are out of the office at meetings, on holidays etc. While a host of other features allow for the full automation of all aspects of staff parking.

 

ParkOffice is powered by a cutting edge algorithm and AI which allows companies to park more staff in the same amount of parking spaces, reducing the cost and administrative burden of company parking in the process. ParkOffice has already recruited a chunky list of clients with Colliers International, Europcar & Benelux property giants Befimmo & MVGM amongst the early movers saving them money, improving employee wellbeing and promoting efficiency. Clients have already reported saving upwards of €50k a year per location using the service.

 

Speaking about ParkOffice, Parkpnp Co-Founder & CEO Garret Flower remarked “We’ve become something of a magnet for companies looking toward technology to improve parking issues. We noticed while many companies thought they needed extra space, in fact they just needed a solution to help them ensure their existing spaces are in use all of the time. We’ve been developing ParkOffice for over a year now and are really looking forward to the impact this product will have across the world”.

 

Parkpnp was founded in 2016 by Irish entrepreneurs Daniel Paul & Garret Flower has quickly established itself as a major player in the European parking market. The company’s marketplace is regularly parking 40,000+ drivers across Ireland, Belgium & the Netherlands allowing all types of parking space owners to rent out and advertise their underutilised space.

 

The latest tranche of investment includes contributions from sustainability focused fund BVP Investments and former Europcar supremo Colm Menton. The investment brings Parkpnp’s total amount raised to date to €1.4m.

Irish parking trailblazer snaps up Belgian competitor to grow European foothold

 

 

 

Parkpnp has announced it’s arrival in the European parking market with the acquisition of Belgian digital disruptor Sharemypark. The deal will see Parkpnp grow into mainland Europe for the first time and will accelerate the growth of digital parking payments in the Belgian market by making it easy for motorists to pay & park in under-used parking spaces.

 

Parkpnp was founded in 2016 by Irish entrepreneurs Garret Flower & Daniel Paul. Currently the company is parking over 100,000 cars a year and has a growing number of partnerships with leading real estate, parking & hotel groups including MVGM, Euro Car Parks & IHG. The company has raised €1.1m to date and is growing aggressively across Europe.

 

Sharemypark generated plenty of buzz upon their launch in November 2016 with their residential parking marketplace quickly attracting 10,000 regular users. The new partnership with Parkpnp will see the Sharemypark rebranded as Parkpnp SPRL and allows the company to offer increased parking solutions to hotels, commercial operators and retailers.

 

Parkpnp Global CEO Garret Flower remarked “We’re really excited to bring Sharemypark onboard. Our complementary strengths are going to be a gamechanger for Belgian motorists. By locking down another market we will have the perfect launchpad to to become the European market leader by 2020.”

 

Speaking about the acquisition Sharemypark Co-Founder Victor Boels who will be joining the Parkpnp team with his fellow Co-Founders William Detry and Murat Turkeli remarked “We realise that the online parking space is becoming increasingly competitive. In such a fast growing space it doesn’t make sense for companies to become dragged into expensive turf wars. We believe that Parkpnp has the best technology in the world and by joining forces we can ensure maximum impact in Belgium and strive towards becoming a global market leader within the next two years”.
