Twelve million euros for delivery greenery

Just in February, the delivery service announced the closing of its seed round. Now the company is already raising its next financing.

In a Series A financing round, Liefergrün is raising twelve million euros. The current round is led by Ecapital. The existing investors Speedinvest and Norrsken VC as well as a family office are also participating. Liefergrün intends to use the new capital to expand its platform and delivery capacities, improve its product and strengthen its own team and key account sales.

Robin Wingenbach, Niklas Tauch and Max Schleper founded the delivery service in 2020. Liefergrün cooperates with retailers and offers them next-day ship-from-store solutions with real-time tracking of the shipment. For delivery, the start-up relies on sustainable means of transport such as cargo bikes or e-vans. Its customers already include brands such as Adidas, Dyson and Shop-Apotheke. Just this February, the start-up announced a three million euro funding round. The start-up claims to have increased its sales more than tenfold since the beginning of the year.

"We are convinced that the company's innovative strength will not only transform the logistics market, but also lead to significant CO2 savings," says Ann-Christin Kortenbrede, investment manager at Ecapital.
