Company
Helping local businesses thrive.
When the shops on a street do well, the street does well. That is the whole of it.
What we believe
-
A place is its businesses
The butcher who knows your order. The café that opens at six. Take them away and a place becomes somewhere you drive through.
-
The cut is the problem
A third of an order going to an app is the difference between a shop that grows and one that just about holds on. That money should stay on the street it came from.
-
Small should not mean second class
The tools a chain spends a fortune on should be within reach of a shop with one till, and should work on the tablet already behind the counter.
-
Own the relationship
Their customers, their names, their orders, their website, their domain. Ours to run, never ours to keep.
What we build
Eclyde is the parent company. Delo is the first company built on it. It will not be the last.
Eclyde
The platform
The till, ordering, deliveries, loyalty, marketing and reporting that a local business runs on, in one system.
Delo
The marketplace
Where people find local shops and order from them, with no commission taken from the shop.
Everything we make exists so the people who serve their neighbours can build something that lasts.
We publish what we learn
Running the tills of local businesses shows us what things really cost and what really works. We write it down and give it away, to anyone, whether they ever become a customer or not. A trade that understands its own numbers is harder to take advantage of.
The plain facts
Who we are
Eclyde Corporation Limited, registered in Ireland, CRO 810069.
Where to find us
The contact form, answered by a person, and hello@eclyde.com.
How we make money
A monthly subscription paid by the business, card payments at standard rates, and a small fee per marketplace order paid by the customer. We never take a cut of what a business sells.
Let's grow together.
