Zyla client PACKFLEET named in 2023 Startups 100 Index

Amid an uncertain economy, this year’s list of the top 100 startups for 2023 showcases the innovators that will bring light and convenience into the new year.

Zyla is delighted for our client Packfleet who were featured in the index for 2023 and won the ‘ecommerce’ award and shortlisted for the 'Just Started' award.

Startups.co.uk has unveiled its fifteenth Startups 100 Index, the UK’s longest-running directory of the top 100 most disruptive new businesses – and not a moment too soon.

As the country grapples with high inflation and supply chain disruption, the 2023 Startups 100 showcases a huge range of inventive business ideas that will solve these challenges and achieve massive success in this year and beyond.

Our top startup for 2023 is the car management app, Caura. With commuters facing public transport chaos due to strikes this January, the revolutionary app is empowering the UK’s 30 million drivers to save time and money by managing all their car admin in just one place – including paying charges for ultra low emission zones.

Record-high temperatures in 2022 means the climate crisis remains a big topic over the next 12 months. Runners-up Sensat, Modern Milkman, and Wild all boast a sustainable focus to help customers make greener choices this year.

Richard Parris, Managing Editor at Startups.co.uk, says, “This year’s index has identified an incredible variety of revolutionary business ideas and exceptional founders. The economic outlook for the UK may feel gloomy, but these businesses have a huge opportunity to grow and to inspire others to do the same.”
