MetroSpeedy raised $5M in seed funding to scale its last-mile delivery operations. The company intends to use the funds for technological advancement, additional fulfillment hubs, expansion into new markets, and talent acquisition. Led by CEO Nancy Korayim and based in New York City, MetroSpeedy provides same-day and next-day delivery services for businesses across industries. It leverages eco-friendly electric vehicles to provide zero-emission delivery wherever possible and operates a proprietary technology platform that powers an analytics aggregator. That technology consolidates deliveries across businesses so customers can receive multiple items (prescriptions, dry cleaning, groceries) in a single delivery. MetroSpeedy currently enables over 1,000 deliveries per day.
