Innovative & independent
Our several awards are testament to our commitment to thinking ahead of the crowd when developing our cutting-edge features.
The name “Oaky”
What is in a name? There are many versions of where the name Oaky came from, but let’s just say there are tree-lovers among us! In actuality, our name has nothing to do with the services we provide, we just think it sounds nice.
Interesting to note: the only other common use of this term takes place in the wine industry, with sommeliers using it to describe a flavour note in wines – often aged in oak barrels.
