It was soaring along, run by the two young founders, through the frothy pandemic-era of VC funding, hitting unicorn status in 2021. <\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The startup survived the subsequent VC funding winter and in 2025, raised a $200 million mega round, also led by Strike Capital, that brought it to a $1.5 billion valuation. It has now raised a total of about $775 million to date.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Stord offers a network of physical warehouses and inventory management software for e-commerce. It bills itself as a sort of anti-Amazon, giving brands &ldquo;the speed to compete&rdquo; while still owning their customer relationships.

It was recently highlighted by Google at the tech giant&rsquo;s Cloud Next conference in April. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><sub>Amazon fulfillment competitor Stord raises $250M at $3B valuation<\/sub><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>E-commerce logistics company Stord has raised a $250 million round at a $3 billion valuation, it announced Tuesday.
