Minoan

Minoan is an all in one, free, ordering platform short-term rentals and boutique hotels can use to buy from 200+ brands at steep discounts and save the hassle of dealing with the messy logistics (tracking, customer service, etc.). Aside from being able to manage all of your orders in one central platform, one thing that sets us apart from other purchasing organizations is we can also turn these properties into a shoppable experience so guests can order the items they loved from their stay, and our property partners can make a little extra money. We're at the frontier of a new way of shopping — one we call “Native Retail”. It’s about discovering products you love “in the wild”, in environments where products are being used for what they were designed to do. In Native Retail, products aren’t boxed up in a display case like they are in stores and they're not hiding behind tactful merchandising on a phone screen, like they do in ecommerce. There’s no sales person over your shoulder — just you and the products; a little one-on-one time, your own time. We believe these special moments are the future of retail. We’re building the platform to bring these moments to life, in a digital-first narrative. Our vision is to be the “everywhere store”, powering native, shoppable experiences anywhere products are being used in the flow of everyday life.
