The Series C financing was led by Menlo Ventures with additional participation from existing investors Bain Capital Ventures, Hyde Park Venture Partners, Hyde Park Angels and Y Combinator.
The company powers logistics and fulfillment for ecommerce businesses, providing them with same-day delivery at ground shipping pricing. ShipBob uses proprietary software to help its customers predict trends, shopping habits and geographic insights across multiple sales channels.
