Tech Pantry was founded nearly a decade ago by Andy Gordon—hospitality veteran, café owner, and early tech adopter. While running Byron Bay’s beloved Top Shop café, Andy saw the potential in cloud-based apps and Apple’s new iPads. He knew it was only a matter of time before the hospitality world caught up.

But he also knew the gap: most venue owners needed more than just software—they needed someone who understood both hospitality and tech.

So, Tech Pantry was born.

Andy moved his family to Sydney, set up shop, and began working closely with emerging platforms—most notably Kounta, now known as Lightspeed POS. His 20+ years of hands-on experience helped shape how hospitality tech evolved in Australia.

Today, Tech Pantry is a team of passionate hospitality experts, supporting over 1,200+ venues with tailored POS solutions, seamless integrations, and real-world know-how.

We’re a small company doing big things— proof that if you want to know where hospitality is going next, it pays to know where it's been.
