Customer Story
How Mercato extended their talent options by hiring globally
MercatoThe customer
Mercarto’s a UK-based B2B SaaS startup founded by Sean Brown, focused on helping online retailers launch and scale with ease. Operating out of Manchester, their platform offered everything from web-store templates and dropshipping tools to order management, CRM, and multi-channel e-commerce integrations.
To accelerate product development and scale more confidently, Mercarto partnered with Cloud Employee - building a remote development team in the Philippines to support key platform upgrades. With seamless recruitment, strong cultural alignment, and support on the ground in Manila, the developers quickly became a high-performing extension of their UK team. The partnership allowed Mercarto to move faster, explore bigger technical ideas, and deliver a better product to market.

The impact
I feel like the talent that we've got in the team here actually outshines our CTO and our tech lead over in the UK because they're so good. So when we assign a task, it's done before we can go back and write another task.
