• Mtor

  Participated · Seed · Dec 2023

  Mtor operates a B2B online marketplace and mechanic-facing app that connects local workshops and service providers directly with parts importers, managing logistics from its two warehouses in Cairo and Giza. The platform addresses fitment data, parts availability, price transparency and delivery, and runs on a margin model with standardized pricing and free delivery. Mtor has served more than 2,500 workshops, fulfilled over 70,000 orders, and partnered with over 60 importers since launching. The startup leverages a visual and voice interface plus a fitment and parts-matching engine to reduce mechanics' search time and improve part quality. Egypt’s automotive after-sales market — valued at over $5 billion with an 8 million vehicle fleet and average owner spend of $600+ annually across ~35,000 workshops — is the target opportunity. Mtor has made recent leadership and operational hires and plans to double down on attracting mechanics monthly and strengthen partnerships with major importers using the new investment.

• Ordermentum

  Participated · Equity · Sep 2023

  Founded in 2014 by Adam Theobald and Andrew Low, Ordermentum has built a digital backbone for Australia’s wholesale food and beverage trade, connecting roughly 50,000 venues with suppliers through a single ordering, payments and reconciliation platform. The company claims deep integration in day-to-day industry workflows and, after its September 2023 all-stock merger with rival Foodbomb, had scaled to about 40,000 venues, 850 suppliers and processed more than $1.2 billion in orders annually. Ordermentum says it will use new capital to deepen AI capabilities and pursue acquisitions that complement its existing wholesale technology stack. The recent financing values the merged business above $150 million and is intended to accelerate product and market expansion while enabling partial exits for some earlier investors.
