What's so special about Direct to Consumer delivery? UPS, USPS & FedEx pioneered the market, then Amazon & Walmart came along, now Temu, et. al. wants to get into the business...volume does reduce costs but it's still a low margin business. #directtoconsumer

About us
Supply Chain Ventures is a hybrid venture partnership, that invests in both early- and late-stage supply chain software companies. Our preferred early-stage investments are revenue-producing companies using information technology to enhance supply chain management. Besides capital, we bring significant entrepreneurial, operating. and investment experience to help our portfolio companies be successful. We often invest with like-minded venture funds that have a supply chain focus area. Our late-stage deals focus on established supply chain software companies with a multi-vertical and established customer base with the opportunity to continue strong double-digit growth over the next three to five years. We generally invest in late-stage deals with our private equity partners. Our investing reach is globally focused, with significant investments in North America, Europe and India .
