Our take
With supply chains facing more disruptions, like the Red Sea shipping crisis, many brands are losing sales because they can't start selling until stock arrives. Purple Dot is shaking things up by letting brands start pre-orders before they even reach the warehouse.
While it has a small team, it's mighty, and its trusted by brands like Castore, Mattel, and French Connection. It helps them sell up to 50% more before stock arrives and reduces returns by up to 40%, all while keeping customer trust high and staying fully compliant with regulations.
It's an exciting time for the company, too, having closed a successful Series A funding round in 2024. This capital will be put towards expanding the platform, with the ultimate aim of helping more brands sell before stock arrives, turning supply chain challenges into sales opportunities.
