Brightpick raises $12M as 300 warehouse robots operate across US and Europe
A financing package supports US installations as Brightpick reports a 300-robot deployed fleet.
Brightpick announced $12 million in additional equity and debt financing on 12 November 2024, bringing disclosed funding to $47 million. EBRD Venture Capital joined existing investors including the founders of Avast and ESET, Maximilian Kolowrat-Krakowsky and Juraj Duriš. The capital will primarily fund additional US customer installations.
The company reported 300 robots deployed across the United States and Europe and more than 200 employees. Its Autopicker travels through warehouse aisles, picks individual items and consolidates orders into containers. Customers included Rohlik Group, Dr. Max and The Feed; the latter had announced an installation of 48 Autopickers in January 2024.
Brightpick originated in 2021 as a Photoneo spin-off. The company expected the United States to account for half its 2024 revenue, a forecast made before year-end. Its 300-robot installed base is separate from the wider Photoneo group’s count of technology installations.
