Restaurant-focused tech company targets a smorgasbord of opportunities

In two decades of leading sales teams that produce lightning-fast results, Shane Whitlatch says he’s found one thing to be a certainty. “It’s addictive and intoxicating,” he says, “to be part of rapidly growing company.”

That’s one of the reasons Whitlatch recently joined a fast-growing business in Clearwater-based Omnivore, a back-end and point of sale technology firm for the restaurant industry. In achieving, and then handling, super-fast growth, Whitlatch says one of the biggest lessons he’s learned is to keep the company’s North Star front-and-center.
