EN DE NEWS Razor Group raises $125m Series B at unicorn valuation Frankfurt am Main, 9th of November 2021 – Razor Group, a portfolio company of Heliad, has raised $125m at a unicorn valuation for its platform to buy and scale third-party Amazon merchants. This milestone comes only 14 months after launch and is making the company possibly the biggest of all aggre-gators in Europe. The Series B was all-equity, raised from existing and new investors, including Fortress Investment Group, 468 Capital, Victory Park Capital, Presight Capital, Blackrock, Jebsen Capital, Redalpine and GFC. Heliad invested a mid-single digit million Euro amount in August earlier this year. CEO and co-founder Tushar Ahluwalia said, “Our pitch is not that we are an FBA acquirer, but that we work in three phases: acquire, operationalize and then transform. Technology helps us to be very good in each of those.” He added that 12% of Razor’s revenues are already “non-Amazon” and the plan is to move up this number up to over 20% in the next three quarters. “We are proud to have invested in the rockstar team of Razor Group. Different than many other peers in the market, the company uses a from ground developed tech platform to identify, acquire, and scale global Amazon FBA businesses. We are convinced that technology is a key differentiator and a fundamental advantage in an increasingly competitive but also vast market.” says Falk Schäfers, CEO of Heliad. “We have attracted a world-class line up of investors. Heliad adds expertise in public equity capital markets and can be highly beneficial for our future journey. We are happy to have such a strong partner on board.” says Tushar Ahluwalia.
