    Lalamove secures 3rd round of funding in last 18 months

    Hong Kong, May 31, 2016 - Lalamove recently closed another USD 10 million funding on the heels of its partnership with LINE in Bangkok and tremendous growth in China.

    Lalamove, founded in Hong Kong as EasyVan in December of 2013, has closed its third round of funding in the past 18 months. The current round of funding brings Lalamove’s total funding up to USD 30 million.

    “We began as a small start-up in Hong Kong working out of my apartment and have grown to 19 cities across Asia in the last two years. When we began, we targeted lots of small businesses, but since then we have developed enterprise solutions to allow companies like Google, IKEA, and now LINE to make their delivery much faster and simpler", said founder and CEO, Shing Chow.

    Chow continued, “There is so much potential in making delivery more efficient as mobile internet is changing the way mobile assets are utilized. This funding will be used to accelerate our leadership position and expansion efforts throughout China and other SEA countries. It’s really a vote of confidence from our existing investors in our model and team. It is our goal to be profitable this year, and it’s quite rare that you see a startup growing at our speed achieving that in less than three years. We are on track to deliver that.”

    With the largest footprint across Asia, Lalamove is well positioned to capitalize on the growing trend of businesses looking to out-source their delivery needs. Additionally, with more and more consumers looking to have their items delivered faster, Lalamove’s average delivery time of 46 minutes is changing the landscape of intra-city delivery in Asia.

    The funding was led by existing investor MindWorks with participation from other existing investors including China’s Crystal Stream, Taiwan’s AppWorks, Hong Kong’s Aria Group and new investor, Asia Plus from Thailand.

    Lalamove can be downloaded for free from Google Play store and Apple Store.
