More company updates

  • The latest investment comes four months after Loship secured capital in a bridge round led by Vulpes Investment Management.
  • The fresh capital will be used to upgrade its app and develop its technology, as well as ramp up marketing strategies to strengthen its presence in existing markets, said Loship CEO Trung Hoang Nguyen.
  • Founded in 2017, the startup traces its roots to Lozi, a review app that allowed users to find food, beverage, and coffee shops. It then transitioned into a delivery services platform.
  • Loship had closed its series A and B rounds from investors such as South Korea’s Smilegate Investment, Hana Financial Group, DTNI, and Golden Gate Ventures.
