Shippeo’s commitment to shipping data quality and innovation drives customer and revenue growth as it expands globally.

PARIS, France & CHICAGO, IL, USA – Jan. 15, 2024Shippeo, a global leader in real-time multimodal transportation visibility, today announced a $30 million strategic funding round led by Woven Capital, Toyota’s growth fund, with participation from existing investors: Battery Ventures, Partech, NGP Capital, Bpifrance Digital Venture, LFX Venture Partners, Shift4Good and Yamaha Motor Ventures. This new funding will support Shippeo’s accelerated expansion across North America and APAC while driving enhancements to its industry-leading Real-Time Transportation Visibility Platform. With this round, Shippeo’s total funding exceeds $140 million.

Shippeo offers real-time shipment tracking across all transport modes, helping companies create sustainable, resilient supply chains. Its platform enables users to reduce logistics-related carbon emissions by making informed trade-offs between modes and carriers based on carbon footprint data. In response to years of global supply chain disruptions, Shippeo has prioritized transportation risk management as a core capability, with a strong emphasis on data quality and customer-focused innovation that distinguishes its solutions.

"This fundraising round is a strong vote of confidence in our team and vision,” says Pierre Khoury, CEO of Shippeo. “We are thrilled to welcome Woven Capital alongside the unwavering support of our existing investors. This investment strengthens our financial position, already having one of the strongest balance sheets in our category, enabling us to deliver long-term value to our customers and partners while expanding our footprint in North America and APAC.”

"Global supply chains are facing unprecedented complexity, and real-time transport visibility is essential for building resilience said Prashant Bothra, Principal at Woven Capital, who is joining the Shippeo board. “Shippeo’s platform empowers businesses to proactively address disruptions by transforming fragmented operations into streamlined, data-driven processes across all transport modes, offering precise tracking and predictive ETAs at scale—capabilities that would be resource-intensive to develop in-house. We are excited to support Shippeo’s journey to accelerate digitization while enhancing cost efficiency, planning accuracy, and customer experience across the supply chain.
