The path to a flexible, fair food ecosystem
Bistroo has lower fees and puts restaurants, food shops, and their customers back in control. The BIST Token and community are live since May 2021!
The Bistroo Story
The first cryptocurrency-driven food takeaway platform
Bistroo’s mission is to give power back to food merchants. How? By cutting out transaction middle-men and building the right tools for food merchants to grow sustainably. Doing so, means our platform allows for more valuable connections between food businesses and their most loyal customers.
So why use cryptocurrency? Blockchain technology allows us to more easily facilitate direct relationships between merchants and consumers and give more control to the merchant. Everything we build aims at more transparency, fairness and loyalty.
We first launched the Bistroo platform for food merchants in 2019 and held a successful token sale in 2020 wherein we sold all the BIST Tokens available for purchase. Since then, our community and team have grown rapidly.
With backgrounds in areas like software engineering, finance, and sales, our team is taking on every challenge that comes its way. To perfect the platform further and allow for more community growth, we’re also working closely with experienced advisors in the field.
