From Store Floor to Software: Our Journey into Retail Tech

Smollan Technologies was founded on a simple belief: retail only works when execution does. With roots in one of the world’s leading field marketing organisations, we understand the realities of the shelf, the stockroom, and the last mile.

"As retail evolved, so did the challenges. We knew we needed better tools."

What started as smart tools to help our own field teams work faster and smarter soon became platforms used by global retailers, brands, and distributors. We united companies like DataOrbis, Argility, FleetDomain, and Chirp under one purpose: to power precision retail at scale, helping our clients win at the point of purchase.


Today, Smollan Technologies offers 30+ integrated solutions across execution, supply chain, analytics, and automation in over 20 markets around the globe.

Unified Under One Brand

Today we operate as Smollan Technologies — a unified tech group with 30+ solutions across 20+ markets helping clients simplify, integrate and innovate at scale.

Our Culture

We’re product thinkers, engineers, analysts, and advisors — united by a shared belief in solving meaningful problems with practical technology.

Simplicity Drives Adoption

We design solutions that are intuitive, purposeful, and built for scale.

People First, Always

Technology must serve people — our teams, our clients, and their customers.

Outcomes Over Optics

We measure success by the results we deliver, not the features we build.

We work fast, think practically, and build things that last.
