# About PurchasePlus > When you’re creating one-of-a-kind procurement software, you need a one-of-a-kind team. Our team includes experts from a wide variety of backgrounds. Source: /about-us About PurchasePlus # 25 years building what hospitality procurement actually needs. We started in 1999 with a simple idea, that hotel procurement was too manual, too disconnected, and too expensive. Two and a half decades, 40 million invoices, and 30,000 suppliers later, that idea still drives everything we build. [Meet Our Team](#ab-leadership) [Book a Demo](/request-a-demo) 1999 Founded 40M+ Invoices 30,000+ Suppliers 5 Regions ![Nathan Gyaneshwar, PurchasePlus Founder](/images/nathan.avif) Nathan Gyaneshwar Founder · Sydney, 1999 Where We Came From ## We built this because we understood the problem from the inside. PurchasePlus was born out of Marketboomer, a company founded in Sydney in 1999 by Nathan Gyaneshwar, who understood hotel procurement because he'd lived it. The vision was to replace paper-based, fax-heavy procurement with a digital platform built the way hospitality operations actually work, multi-property, multi-supplier, multi-currency, and always-on. In 2026, that platform processes over 40 million invoices a year across some of the world's most demanding hospitality operations. Accor. Marriott. IHG. Qantas. Emirates. They chose PurchasePlus not just because of the technology, but because of what our team understands about their business. Origin Story ## How PurchasePlus came to be, in Nathan's own words.

Hospitality procurement isn't generic. We don't ask you to change how you work, we adapt to fit your workflows, approval chains, and ERP systems. 02 ### Data should be visible before it's a problem. Overspending, supplier errors, budget blowouts, they're all visible in the data before they hurt you. Our job is to surface that data at the right time. 03 ### Supplier relationships matter as much as the software. We personally onboard and support 30,000+ suppliers. That's why pricing is accurate and catalogues stay current.
