The latest funding round is being led by existing investors who have invested c.£400,000.
The business is now looking to attract new investors that share its vision in offering award-winning affordable tech, which is easy to set up and simple to use, giving anyone with an ambition the tools to be successful.
Anthony Franklin, founder and managing director of fibodo, commented: “As the world’s major economies have matured, they have become dominated by service focused businesses.”
“However, many of the management tools and techniques used by these service providers were initially designed for retail companies, and therefore do not meet the needs of service businesses.”
“fibodo has been designed specifically with service industries in mind, addressing this previous gap in the market.”
