EPOS CUBED LTD

What EPOS CUBED LTD does

EPOS Cubed Ltd is a UK-based software vendor that develops and sells Storefront, a cloud-based electronic point-of-sale and retail management platform targeted at independent retailers. The product addresses point-of-sale, multi-site management, live reporting, purchase ordering, goods-in workflows, customer and sales insight, café ordering with kitchen printer integration, mobile tablet tilling for events and outdoor trading, and electronic shelf-edge label automation. It is positioned across nine vertical segments — farm shops, garden centres and plant nurseries, independent department stores, fashion and lifestyle retail, butchers and delicatessens, cheesemongers and specialty food retail, coffee shops and cafés, events and wedding venues, and pet stores — with the latter categories carrying dedicated sector messaging on the website.

The platform is delivered as a software-as-a-service subscription, priced via custom quote rather than public tiers, typically structured as a multi-year contract, and distributed exclusively through a direct-sales motion combining website callback forms, phone enquiries, and email follow-up. Distribution is UK-only in scope (England, Northern Ireland, the Isle of Man); there is no reseller or marketplace channel. Hardware integration is central to the value proposition: documented partners include weighing scale manufacturers Bizerba, Avery Berkel, and DIGI; payment terminal provider DOJO (with automatic 4G/5G failover); and electronic shelf-edge label vendor Solum. The customer base visible in case studies comprises owner-operated and family-owned independents (Stringers Department Store, Welbeck Farm Shop, Wroes, Indie Füde, Calcott Hall, The Meat Merchant), indicating that volumes come from a long tail of multi-site independents rather than enterprise anchors.

EPOS Cubed Ltd was incorporated in England and Wales (company number 15411226) in 2024 and lists its headquarters at 6th Floor, Kings House, Haymarket, London. The founding leadership team consists of Dave Thompson (Director, involved in the UK's first EPOS trials in the early 1980s and over 40 years in EPOS), Nigel Bogle (CEO, 25+ years in retailer operations), Jack Thompson (CTO, 10+ years in retail systems development), and Jon Boyle (CCO, 20+ years across retail, technology, and payments commercial leadership), with Michael Boyle of Fresh Retail appointed Non-Executive Director to strengthen governance and product roadmap input. The company is privately held with no external institutional investment disclosed, is working towards B Corp certification, and positions itself on Innovation, Integration, and Integrity as operating principles. Headcount is currently 1-10.

Direct peers

• Toast: Toast is a cloud POS and management platform for the restaurant/cafe segment — overlapping with EPOS Cubed's coffee shops and café customer segment (Welbeck Farm Shop's Harley Café workflow is a direct parallel). Comparable on cloud architecture and integrated payments/hardware.
• Epos Now: Epos Now is a UK-headquartered cloud EPOS provider targeting independent retailers, restaurants, and hospitality. Closely comparable to EPOS Cubed in geography, target customer (UK SMEs), and product category, making it the most direct UK-headquartered rival.
• Square (Block, Inc.): Square provides cloud POS and payments hardware/software for small and independent retailers worldwide. Comparable to EPOS Cubed's offering on subscription model, payments integration, and focus on SMB retailers, though EPOS Cubed emphasises sector-specific depth (farm shops, butchers) where Square is more generalist.
• Shopify POS: Shopify POS offers cloud-based retail POS tightly integrated with ecommerce for independent retailers. Comparable in cloud-first architecture and recurring revenue model, with significantly larger scale and ecosystem breadth, making it the dominant incumbent competing for the same UK indie retail customer base.
• TouchBistro: TouchBistro provides cloud POS for cafés, restaurants, and food-service. Comparable in targeting the café/hospitality segment with kitchen printer integrations and mobile ordering — overlapping with EPOS Cubed's café ordering workflow feature.
• Vend (Lightspeed Retail): Vend is a cloud POS for retail, now part of Lightspeed. Comparable in its cloud-first retail POS positioning, multi-store management, and integrations with payments and ecommerce, serving independent retail customers with subscription pricing.
• Zettle (PayPal): Zettle is PayPal's cloud POS and payments offering for small retailers and hospitality. Comparable subscription-plus-hardware GTM and SMB focus; competes head-to-head with EPOS Cubed at the lower end of UK independent retail accounts.
• Sitoo: Sitoo provides cloud-native unified POS, inventory, and clienteling for fashion and specialty retail. Comparable cloud-first architecture and multi-site capabilities, though Sitoo skews toward fashion rather than farm shops and food retail.
• Lightspeed Commerce (Retail): Lightspeed is a leading cloud-based commerce platform serving independent retailers across similar verticals (specialty retail, food/café). It is the most direct UK/international competitor to EPOS Cubed's Storefront platform, with overlapping features in multi-site management, payments, and integrations.
• SumUp: SumUp offers integrated payments and POS hardware/software bundles for SMB retailers and hospitality across the UK and Europe. Comparable in its mix of payment terminal-plus-software model and SMB focus, competing for the same independent retailer wallet.
