Our Story

​​

Kid-toting, cargo-friendly strollers were the original inspiration behind VOOMcart. Power-walking while we ran errands kept us fit, connected and happy. When the kids outgrew the strollers, we found ourselves struggling to carry things. We wanted our wheels back, but there was no way we were going the route of a granny cart. That was when we decided to create VOOMcart.

​

We spent a couple of years designing, engineering and testing prototypes and ran a successful Kickstarter campaign, only to face our supply chain floored by COVID in early 2020.  We persevered with patient backers and delivered our innovative solution in April 2021.

DARRAGH MURPHY

Chief Operating Officer

I'm thrilled to join the dynamic team at VOOMcart after suddenly finding my new career as a professional world traveller/flight attendant on hold. I'm excited to draw on my communications skills honed at companies such as Conde Nast, Hearst, Weddingbells and The YMCA of Greater New York to promote a very different but equally vital mode of transportation and travel.
