Troops connects on-demand vetted independent workers with hospitality and retail business for short-term missions through technology.
Current Status
47 venues (full services restaurants, events space and private club) have registered to be "beta clients" which far exceed our initial target of 15 - 30. The traction has been fantastic.
We are currently finalizing the development of our application and are entering user testing phase in the upcoming few weeks and have hired our core team members. We will be ready to onboard the first "Troopers" starting from the first week of December and are working on the finetuning our recruitment strategy and pre-launch marketing plan.
Problem or Opportunity
We solve 2 problems:
1- Restaurants, Hotels and Retail businesses have been increasingly struggling to manage their staffing and make their payroll compliant and more flexible
2- Workers are increasingly looking for more flexibility but are facing an unreliable and unstructured part-time market.
Solution (product or service)
Troops is making work flexible, sustainable and human by providing sustainable gig work solutions to both business and prospective staff (called Troopers).
How? The Troops mobile application matches on-demand vetted independent workers with business for short term missions in hospitality, retail, F&B.
Businesses can create and post missions in a few clicks and Troops match them with the most suitable Trooper, and take care of compliance and payroll. Troopers can choose between a large variety of missions and employers and access benefits, rewards, training and community based support.
Business model
We take a commission on every hour billed.
Incubation/Acceleration programs accomplishment
We have just entered Cyberport Incubation Program on 31 October 2022 (CVCF).
