Our Story From the CEO, Melani Gordon

Headquartered in the heart of downtown San Diego, Evergreen has grown from a tiny start-up into a thriving software-as-a-service company supporting thousands of bars, restaurants and other local businesses across the U.S., Canada and Australia.

Evergreen has been repeatedly recognized as a key organization within San Diego’s thriving start-up scene, with CEO Melani Gordon named one of San Diego’s most influential female entrepreneurs. We believe the reason we’ve seen this kind of success is because we’re truly dedicated to helping bars and restaurants solve problems and deliver a better experience to customers. We’re particularly proud of our 98% customer retention rate.

My co-founder and I launched TapHunter in 2009 with a focus on the exploding craft beer market. We built the first app to help consumers hunt for their favorite beers, followed in 2012 by tools designed specifically to serve the bars that grew alongside the craft movement.

But we were onto something bigger than just beer. As we developed the TapHunter for Business software, we discovered that not only beer bars but also cocktail lounges, wine bars, and restaurants were using the technology to grow their sales.

As our customer base expanded, we kept pace and adapted our technology to serve the needs of a more diverse set of businesses. We have released a series of features that help bars and restaurants:

  • Generate revenue with digital menus and promotions.
  • Increase sales with up-to-the-minute print, web, and Facebook menus.
  • Drive customer traffic with social media tools.
  • Manage their online reputation and reviews.

As a result of these innovations, our customers now include breweries, beer bars, cocktail lounges, sports bars, wine bars, burger joints, and grocery stores. We are proud to count both local watering holes and national chains like Whole Foods and Stone Brewing among our customers. The name Evergreen both speaks to this wider customer base and captures our core vision since 2012: helping local businesses create enduring, lasting businesses.
