Co-Founder
20 years owning and operating grocery stores with deep expertise in daily retail operations and store management.
8 years running UniSight in daily operations at Red Top Market & Kitchen, co-shaping POS features and inventory management solutions directly from the shop floor.
With a combined 40 years of experience in the grocery industry, Dr. Jack Bayramyan, Ara Kirakosyan, and Vrej Zakarian have firsthand knowledge of the challenges faced by independently owned and operated grocery stores.
Struggling to gain control of their finances with limited resources and grappling with time-consuming, overly complex software applications, these three industry veterans recognized a pressing need for a more efficient solution.
Motivated by their shared vision and passion for empowering small businesses, they combined their extensive expertise to develop a user-friendly, cost-effective software tailored specifically for independent grocers.
"Our groundbreaking solution aims to revolutionize the industry by streamlining processes, simplifying financial management, and ultimately, enabling small grocery stores to thrive in a competitive marketplace."
Ara Kirakosyan begins selling and installing business information technologies including POS systems for grocery stores, laying the foundation for his deep expertise in retail technology.
Dr. Jack Bayramyan makes his first investment in a local grocery store, beginning his journey into grocery retail operations and profit optimization.
Vrej Zakarian takes over his family's grocery store, gaining hands-on experience in daily retail operations and store management.
Ara sells and installs a point of sale system for Vrej's store, marking the first collaboration between two future UniSight founders.
Ara sells and installs a POS system for Jack's store, connecting all three future founders through shared technology needs.
Vrej and Ara open Red Top Market & Kitchen in Burbank, CA—a store that would become the testing ground for UniSight.
Ara begins developing what will become UniSight, drawing on over a decade of experience installing POS systems and understanding the pain points of independent grocers.
The original UniSight platform was developed around daily operations at Red Top Market & Kitchen—from inventory management to cashier workflows to financial reporting.
Red Top Market's operating experience continues to shape UniSight's focus on receiving accuracy, cost changes, inventory records, and financial review. Outcomes should be assessed using a defined period, baseline, and calculation.
Seeing the transformative results at Red Top, Vrej and Jack call Ara to bring UniSight to the broader market and help other independent grocers achieve the same success.
UniSight is now available for all food retailers—bringing enterprise-grade POS, inventory management, and business intelligence to independent grocery stores everywhere.
Exceptionally talented engineers, developers, designers, analysts, data entry specialists, and hardware integration experts — all under the guidance of seasoned project managers.

Their relentless dedication and outstanding skills are the driving force behind the continuous development, refinement, and successful deployment of UniSight and our comprehensive suite of solutions. The unwavering commitment and ingenuity of our team ensure that we deliver cutting-edge, reliable, and effective products.
Building a robust, capable, and expandable platform involves rigorous quality assurance testing to ensure reliability and performance.
By systematically verifying each component and process, our quality assurance testing aims to identify and address potential issues early. Reliability and capacity should be evaluated for the actual deployment and operating requirements.
This approach supports a more dependable foundation. New operating requirements and integrations need their own verification before expansion.
"Our mission is to give independent food retailers one system to run their business. UniSight replaces separate checkout, inventory, staff-time and accounting tools with one application. The work you do powers built-in insights, so you can understand performance and decide where to act. Accountable is Profitable: take responsibility for the work, review the results and make informed decisions in pursuit of profitability."
