bex to raise €5.6 million from Scania Growth Capital.

bex technologies, a Stuttgart, Germany-based B2B marketplace for construction materials, announced a seed+ financing round closed at 5.6 million ($6.4M).

The money was raised from the Swedish investors from Scania, via Scania Growth Capital.

bex, founded in 2019 by ex-Würth employees Lennart A. Paul and Johannes Keller, is developing a B2B logistics platform for the building trade and its suppliers.

The company offers several hundred vehicles - from cargo bikes to three-axle vehicles with cranes. In this way, we expand the delivery options of construction suppliers, regardless of whether they are dealers, construction machinery rental companies or manufacturers. Bex is now active in 18 German metropolitan areas and over 1,000 postcode areas. Customers include companies such as Züblin, Raab Karcher, Hornbach and Boels.

bex previously raised money in 2021 and 2020.
