Our Company And Founders

Toolio is a global operation with headquarters in NYC and offices in Turkey, built by an ex-Walmart team of second-time entrepreneurs and backed by top VCs and apparel industry executives. Our founders, Berk and Eytan, are serial entrepreneurs who have worked together for almost 10 years. Their previous company, Stylr, was acquired by Walmart Labs in 2014. Over a successful 5 year tenure at Walmart, they lead teams that delivered various groundbreaking products like Sam's Club Scan & Go and Walmart Pay which reach millions of users and process billions of dollars each year. During this time, Berk and Eytan observed how the tools used by planners and merchants were years behind the technology they had built for consumers. So they set out on a mission to change this by building a modern merchandising platform, Toolio.
