The current financing round was led by global venture capital and private equity firm Insight Partners and European investor Endeit Capital. Parcellab plans to use the fresh capital to drive its global expansion and support the development of new products. This includes, for example, a new returns portal that will enable brands to offer their customers an optimal end-to-end returns experience. Furthermore, there are plans to expand the team: From its Munich office, the company is looking for new talent all over the world who can work fully remotely for Parcellab. We already gave us an insight into their daily work some time ago. Caroline Heil, Team Lead Technical Account Management at Parcellab.
Tobias Buxhoidt, CEO and co-founder of Parcellab, commented on the current financing round:
"Online retail is becoming increasingly competitive. In today's always-on world, customer centricity is a business imperative for every product and service. Brands that practice Operations Experience Management leverage data from complex logistics processes and transform it into first-class customer experiences. This creates competitive advantages that help them stand out from the crowd. We are very proud to be able to support companies in this endeavor and look forward to revolutionizing new industries and brands with Operations Experience."
“Real potential for change”
Matt Gatto, Managing Director of Insight Partners, is convinced of the Parcellab idea:
"We pride ourselves on identifying and investing in scaleups and driving transformative change in their industries. At Parcellab, we see real potential to change the way brands and people connect. We want to support this growth and development."
And Christian Siegele, partner at existing investor Capnamic Ventures, adds:
"It's impressive to see the extent to which the operations KPIs of retailers like IKEA, Puma, and Lidl are improving through the use of the Parcellab platform. For us, they are a good example of how companies can build lasting, successful relationships with their customers by leveraging technology."
