“Our clients and staff are excited about the incremental value this union brings to the table,” said Hathway CEO Jesse Dundon. “We’ve become the go-to partner for dining and convenience store brands seeking to drive customer loyalty, lifetime value and incremental sales, based in no small part on our expertise with many of the industry’s top technologies like Olo, Punchh, and Paytronix. Now, with Bounteous, we gain instant access to a global talent network, additional capabilities, and resources to help us make this an ever better place for our team to succeed in driving results for our clients.

Bolstering its strong organic growth, Bounteous’ acquisition of Hathway accelerates Bounteous’ strategic roadmap. It follows Bounteous’ recent partnership with New Mountain Capital, a leading growth-oriented investment firm with over $35 billion in assets under management, and acquisition of Lister Digital, a full-service digital transformation consultancy with offices in Chennai, India, and San Mateo, California. These acquisitions, coupled with investments to support organic growth, have allowed Bounteous to develop a global delivery footprint, expand and deepen its client offerings and talent base, and driven eight-fold growth for the company over the last five years.
