Our Story So Far
From having an idea to enjoying a pork pie we have come a long way in a short time...
September 2015
A discussion amongst engineers raises the idea that a lot of engineering calculations that are undertaken as part of our job could easily be turned into an app as opposed to a spreadsheet...
October 2015
So it begins... Early October whilst eating a porkpie at lunch, and deciding it was more important to start writing apps than over thinking a company name..., we register our company as 'Pork Pie Software'.
October 2015
After finding that the .com domain was already owned we hastily purchased the .kiwi and .co.nz web domains together with creating a basic website on our .kiwi domain. Although we checked if the domain was in use, well typed 'porkpiesoftware.com' into a browser, we did not check if it was already registered.... It was... Enough money had been spent so we ran with the local .kiwi and .co.nz domains...
