From Bolt to Piney: Nicolas Chrysostomou on Scaling Operations in Europe

Short-term rentals host new guests every day, but very few people understand the chaos behind getting each property ready, on time, every time.In this episode of Made in Cyprus, we speak with Nicolas Chrysostomou, founder of Piney, a company scaling across Europe by turning short-term rental operations into a tech-driven logistics engine. Nicolas shares the lessons from launching Bolt in Cyprus, surviving COVID when revenue hit zero overnight, and why building from Cyprus is powerful… but can’t be your only test.We get into why Piney isn’t just “a cleaning company,” how the team built the technology first, and what changes when you operate across Athens, Lisbon, Madrid, and Paris, where infrastructure and logistics rewrite the rules.Brought to you by Factory 39 and Martin Zarian.
