About Ginger

CEO & Founder, Ginger Ltd

Ginger was founded in 2014 by Mark Caulfield. From the outset, we wanted to build a company that creates perfect apps. If you want to be really good at anything, you’ve got to do what you love, and we honestly love what we do.

Our clients like us because we fully engage with them during the development process. We take the time to understand their needs and work creatively with them to deliver what is really needed to add value to their products.

Our team are given the responsibility and freedom to express themselves, learn their craft and have the space to care about the little things.
