Kamereo is an online marketplace that enables farmers and food and beverage businesses to trade and source fresh supplies. The company is led by CEO and Founder Taku Tanaka. Its platform aims to help users optimize purchasing and sourcing processes. Kamereo raised $2.1M in funding to support its growth. The company plans to use the proceeds to expand operations and broaden its business reach across Vietnam and abroad. Its immediate international expansion target is Cambodia. Kamereo is a B2B platform with its own warehouse and last-mile delivery network that negotiates with suppliers, processes orders, and fulfills deliveries for restaurants and other F&B businesses. Founded in 2018 and based in Ho Chi Minh City, it works with about 15 farmers and serves more than 400 active customers, from family-owned restaurants to chains. The company has about 100 employees and reports 15% month-over-month growth over the last 12 months despite COVID-19 disruptions. Most last-mile deliveries are done by motorbikes; Kamereo operates its own logistics because it says this is cheaper than third-party providers and plans to expand a micro-warehouse network in Ho Chi Minh City to reduce travel distances. Its tech team is building an internal warehouse management, inventory, fulfillment, and last-mile delivery system aimed at minimizing variable costs. The newly raised capital will be used for hiring, building a new warehouse management system, user interface upgrades, and expansion into Hanoi next year. KAMEREO operates a B2B purchasing and sourcing platform that connects restaurants with suppliers in Vietnam.
