Despite its size, the European bus resale market is still largely stuck in the analogue age. Now, Italian startup Fleequid wants to change that – with the help of a €3 million seed round.
The European second-hand bus market is massive – over 100,000 vehicles change hands every year. But the process has long been stuck in the early 2000s: fragmented, opaque, and heavily broker-driven.
Enter Fleequid, a Milan-based startup founded by brothers Filippo and Federico Battaglia, who are betting that this sleepy B2B market is finally ready for digitisation. The company has just raised €3 million in seed funding to build what they call a much-needed "operating system" for used bus transactions, reports Tech EU.
