Company mission

To make the entire process of booking and managing workforce accommodation and expenses as easy and cost-effective as possible.

35% female employees

57% employee growth in 12 months

Our take

Roomex’s travel booking and spend management helps companies and their employees easily book accommodation and manage their expenses. As well as its booking platform, the company has also launched a mobile app and debit card for employees to gain more visibility of their work-travel spend.

Despite the shift to remote working and digital meetings, the Business Travel market is still expected to grow significantly over the next half decade, putting Roomex in an opportune position. The company has grown steadily at home in Ireland and the UK since its foundation in 2004, and has gained custom from the likes of Mitsubishi, Dairygold, Kepak, and Müller, highlighting the attractiveness of its proposition.

Roomex was acquired by FLEETCOR, a US spend management company in 2022. With Roomex's footprint already visible in Germany and the US, it will further benefit from FLEETCOR's network with the intention of expanding its product and accelerating sales and growth.
