Flipdish, the all-in-one leader in AI technology for hospitality, today announced the appointment of Ryan Scott as Senior Product Manager for Consumer Growth. He will be responsible for the suite of Flipdish’s consumer facing products such as web, apps, kiosk and the newly released AI phone agent.
Ryan joins Flipdish from DropChef, the Irish healthy meal kit company he co-founded in 2014 and led as CEO. During his tenure, DropChef grew into a nationally recognised brand, delivering healthy, ready-to-cook meals to households across Ireland and building a loyal customer base through a strong focus on product quality, customer experience and brand.

I was extremely fortunate to have had a very talented team who built a market leading product and reliable technology platform. Flipdish is uniquely positioned to give hospitality brands the same level of control and insight over their customers that successful companies need. Joining the team gives me the chance to apply everything I learned as a founder to products that can help thousands of hospitality businesses grow their direct customer relationships.”
