SEATTLE, WA, Replenium announced that it has raised an $8 million Series A round led by GLP.
Replenium, Inc., the industry-defining SaaS platform for automated replenishment, product subscription and predictive ordering, today announced that it has raised an $8 million Series A round led by GLP, a leading global investment manager that specializes in logistics and related technologies. Other participants in the round included existing investors and the company founders, Amazon veterans Tom Furphy and Justin Leigh.
With this funding, Replenium will accelerate the deployment of its proven automated product replenishment solution to retailers, e-commerce platforms and brands. With a robust and growing customer base, the company plans to expand its reach and capabilities to enable more shoppers to save money and time by easily replenishing the products they use on regular basis.
"GLP's investment underscores the immense value and opportunity of Replenium as a core consumer offering for retailers and brands alike," said CEO and Cofounder Tom Furphy. "Working with a global, blue-chip investor in GLP allows us to accelerate the transformation of the way routinely purchased products are obtained by shoppers. Shoppers value e-commerce breakthroughs that lower costs, increase speed or improve convenience. Replenium delivers on all three."
"The Replenium team has a proven track record and deep understanding of the evolution of e-commerce and how predictive technologies can help to automate and transform how products are purchased and received," stated executive leadership from GLP. "There is still a gap between growing e-commerce demand and logistics infrastructure, and technology and innovations like Replenium will help to close that gap by reducing friction between retailers and consumers to increase efficiency in the ecosystem."
John Zagula, advisor and founding partner of Ignition Capital, as well as a member of the GLP team, will join Replenium's Board of Directors.
