NEW YORK, Sept. 15, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- YOOBIC, the all-in-one digital workplace for frontline teams, today announced surging global growth, including 270% year-on-year sales growth in North America. The company's accelerating growth caps a banner year that also saw YOOBIC ink major deals with top global brands, build out its global teams, win plaudits from analysts and industry groups. The company also cemented strategic partnerships to expand its offering and fuel future growth, and completed its first acquisition with the purchase of Heystan, a digital training and knowledge management platform for employees in the catering and hospitality industries.
YOOBIC's platform is now used by over 300 global brands operating in more than 80 countries, with over 1 million frontline employees using the company's apps to elevate performance, level up their skill sets, and drive scalable success.

Globally, YOOBIC onboarded more new users in the first 6 months of the year than in the whole of 2021.
YOOBIC's game-changing platform is now trusted by industry-leading brands including Benetton, Francesca's, Johnston & Murphy, Levi's, Roots, UNTUCKit, and SPARC Group (Forever21, Aeropostale, and Reebok). Over the past 12 months, YOOBIC also cemented key strategic partnerships with digital learning leader Open Sesame, pioneer in AI-powered workforce management Legion Technologies, and in-store analytics expert RetailNext, further enriching its product to deliver streamlined and fully integrated support for its customers' evolving needs.
In total, YOOBIC empowered frontline teams to deliver a 20%-plus increase in in-store conversions in 2021, with a 300% increase in user activity as teams leveraged YOOBIC's rich task-management, micro-learning, and communication features to optimize team performance and coordinate agile and responsive operations across their entire networks.
