Shopvibes receives a six-figure sum

The start-up facilitates companies' contact with retailers and prepares data. Investors mainly include industry experts.

Shopvibes has received a six-figure sum in a pre-seed funding round. The round was led by Atrada and Hotel.de founder and Flixbus investor Heinz Raufer. Hotel.de co-founder Reinhard Wick, digital entrepreneur Ralf Fischer, Remazing founders Hannes Detjen and Emil Beck, and Quirin Herz also participated.

Founded in 2020 by Daniel Wimmer and Philipp Schlieker, the start-up operates a platform that connects small and medium-sized businesses with their retailers. The software collects product- and sales-relevant data from various sales channels, processes it and thus makes it digitally usable. With the insights from the data, companies can improve their visibility in various sales channels. Previously, the processes were primarily based on Excel and email.

"We are very pleased that we have been able to attract investors with relevant experience and thus further advance our vision of a central, digital platform for multi-channel sales for SMEs," says Shopvibes co-founder and CEO Daniel Wimmer. "We will primarily invest in expanding our team and thus in product development and further expansion."
