About Us

SocioLocal helps multi-location brands connect with local customers at scale - combining central control, local empowerment and Retail Media to drive measurable growth.

Who We Are

Headquartered in Ireland, SocioLocal supports brands across the world, enabling national and international organisations to connect authentically with their local communities. We combine technology, creativity, and data-driven insight to help multi-location businesses scale local marketing and Retail Media without losing local relevance.

At our core, we believe that local is powerful - and that brands should be able to have both consistent messaging and genuine, community-level engagement.

Our platform helps brands manage and activate their local presence at scale, while turning the strength of their individual locations and local audiences into measurable marketing and Retail Media opportunities. With centralized customer data and personalized marketing outreach, we unlocked new revenue opportunities and significantly boosted campaign ROI across multiple channels.

Our Mission

To revolutionise local social media marketing by giving businesses the tools to manage, publish, and measure local content efficiently - at scale - while maintaining authentic local engagement.

We envision a world where local teams aren’t stifled by corporate control, corporate teams aren’t overwhelmed by local noise, and brands can unlock the full value of their local audiences - from customer engagement through to Retail Media.

Our Story & Evolution

SocioLocal began with Stephen Malone, inspired by one clear frustration: the growing disconnect between brands and their local audiences. Starting out, we worked closely with independent businesses on their digital marketing, gaining first-hand insight into the real challenges of building and scaling a strong local presence.

As our customers’ needs evolved, so did we. In 2019, we launched SocioCommand, our flagship platform, to allow multi-venue organisations to centrally manage distributed digital marketing.

Over time, we added the location app, SocioConnect along with critical modules; reputation management, analytics, advertising, and more - to build a full tech stack for local-first marketing. In 2022, we welcomed Michael Nolan as CEO and Co‑Founder, a leader with deep experience in scaling tech and eCommerce companies, to guide our next growth phase.

Today, SocioLocal is evolving beyond local marketing management. By connecting brands, locations and local audiences, we are helping retailers turn every location into a local marketing and Retail Media channel - creating new ways to engage customers, activate high-value audiences and unlock new revenue streams at scale.
