Crafty Wins 50 on Fire Award

CHICAGO, IL — December 14, 2022 — Can you feel the heat? That’s us winning a 50 on Fire award from Chicago Inno! We are honored to be in the company of 49 other Chicagoland companies disrupting the tech space and growing business despite the economic downturn.

We’ve spent the last seven years working hard to meet the demands of the evolving marketplace–a passion that has made us perfectly suited to handle rapid changes in the world of work. That hard work includes servicing our clients with comprehensive, hospitality-focused food and beverage programs to craft a better workplace.

We’ve remained agile because of our ability to listen when our clients speak. When it comes to workplace food and beverage programs our clients want to work with a partner that helps them consolidate spending, streamline operations, and use food as a vehicle to foster employee connections–whether they’re in the same place or spread across the world. With a combination of investing in our technology, offering new programs and services, and providing unmatched expertise in food and beverage, we evolved our business model this past year to deliver these results to each and every one of our clients.

The evolution of our business model over the last 12 months has allowed us the room to grow immensely, from securing our $10 million Series A funding, to expanding our headcount times two, growing our market reach globally, and moving offices to better accommodate our growing team. (P.S. None of this would be possible without the amazing Crafty crew–the sole reason for our recognition on lists like Chicago Inno’s 50 on Fire)

Thank you to our brilliant team, our hardworking partners, our enthusiastic and loyal clients, and all the delicious, unique, and energizing snacks and drinks that fuel us from the inside out!
