Gofind.Online

Gofind.Online operates a business-to-business (B2B) decision intelligence platform with a Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) model, designed to bridge the gap between online consumer searches and offline retail purchasing. Established in December 2015 by co-founders Fernando Farias and Felipe Samy, the company is headquartered in Brazil. The firm provides a technology solution that enables large brands to increase foot traffic to the physical stores where their products are sold, directly impacting sales and market share.

The company's core offering is a platform that organizes and provides real-time information about product availability in physical stores. For its enterprise clients—primarily large and medium-sized companies in the food, beverage, and cosmetics industries—Gofind.Online enhances local search presence. It ensures that when a consumer searches for a client's product online, they can see exactly which nearby retailers have it in stock. This functionality helps client brands to increase sales, particularly during new product launches, and mitigate supply chain ruptures by directing consumers to the right locations. Case studies with major brands like Heineken, Saint-Gobain, and Royal Canin demonstrate the platform's utility in digitalizing small retailers and maintaining a consistent brand presence across numerous points of sale. For instance, the platform can automatically update a retailer's Google Business Profile with current product catalogs, photos, and store hours.

Revenue is generated through recurring subscriptions to this platform. The business was founded by Fernando Farias, who serves as CEO, and Felipe Samy, the COO. Their venture into this specific market addresses the growing trend of consumers researching online before purchasing in-store (O2O - online-to-offline). The company has secured funding from investors including FIR Capital Bzplan, which invested R$ 2 million in early 2018 to fuel expansion in sales, product development, and customer success teams.
