Busy mother of four and Founder of shopless.ie, Niamh Parker came all the way up from Cork this weekend to join Conall on the Sunday Business Show.

Shopless.ie is a new online personal shopping and delivery service that takes the stress out of high street shopping, which was recently launched in Cork.

The brainchild of tech entrepreneur Niamh Parker, the new subscription service allows users to buy from their favourite local stores without having to leave their home or office. 

Orders are placed within seconds through the specially designed Shopless app, with  products sourced locally and delivered within hours.

The model is community based, meaning that the more people in an area that use the app the cheaper the service becomes.

 

While Conall noted that Shopless had some big companies to compete with, such as Amazon and Tesco, Niamh however convinced him that her business had much more to offer.

The first Shopless community is based in Cork city and its wider environs, with an expected staff of 12 by the end of 2018. The initial subscription price is €75 per month.

Niamh also noted that she plans on expanding the business in the coming future.
