Pandion, a leading provider of residential parcel delivery solutions for eCommerce, has successfully secured $41.5 million in Series B funding. This investment will fuel the company’s expansion efforts, focusing on enhancing technology offerings, broadening geographic reach, and optimizing delivery speed.
According to a press release on Tuesday (March 19), Pandion’s Founder and CEO, Scott Ruffin, brings over 25 years of logistics expertise to the table. Ruffin’s background includes pivotal roles at Amazon and Walmart, where he spearheaded strategic initiatives in logistics and transportation.
“Pandion fills a crucial gap in the market,” stated Ruffin in the release. “With the increasing demand for efficient parcel delivery solutions, businesses require alternatives beyond traditional carriers. Pandion offers a scalable and diversified network that meets these evolving needs.”
Operating through a network of over 500,000 final-mile drivers, Pandion streamlines the delivery process by picking up packages from brands’ fulfillment centers, sorting them, and ensuring timely delivery to customers. The company currently serves 80% of households in the United States, with the capacity to handle millions of packages.
Revolution Growth led Pandion’s latest funding round, with Kristin Gunther, a partner at Revolution Growth, joining Pandion’s board of directors as part of the investment. Gunther emphasized Pandion’s role in providing retailers with a flexible and responsive shipping network amidst challenges like consumer demand fluctuations, driver shortages, and rising costs.
In a related development, Pandion’s funding news coincides with strategic collaborations in the delivery space. Deliveright and Wix recently announced a partnership to simplify heavy goods shipping for Wix merchants, while delivery management platform Bringg introduced an innovative tool, Road, aimed at optimizing last-mile delivery operations.
