Berlin — In addi­tion to its exis­ting inves­tor Flash Ventures, ever­stox has gained two further renow­ned backers for the expan­sion of its digi­tal logi­stics plat­form. The fresh capi­tal comes from Global Foun­ders Capi­tal (GFC) and Capna­mic Ventures. The company says it plans to use the successfully comple­ted growth finan­cing to further grow its team, deve­lop its tech plat­form and expand its network of inde­pen­dent warehouse logi­stics provi­ders. SMP advi­sed Munich-based tech startup ever­stox on its growth financing.

“The global logi­stics market is beco­ming incre­asingly complex and often inef­fi­ci­ent as a result. With its self-deve­lo­ped cloud tech­no­logy, inclu­ding the asso­cia­ted smart features, ever­stox is setting a new stan­dard for future-proof and sustainable logi­stics. We are very plea­sed to have been able to accom­pany ever­stox as advi­sors during the entry of further inves­tors,” says Frede­rik Gärtner.
