Moroccan cross-border logistics startup Colis has closed a US$300,000 pre-seed funding round to strengthen its presence at home and expand into West Africa.
Founded in 2022 by Issam Darui, Colis helps individuals and companies send items to, and receive them from, six European countries, and has delivered more than 55,000 parcels in the last two years.
The startup, which previously raised US$50,000 from The Baobab Network and took part in the Plug and Play Morocco accelerator, has now secured US$300,000 in pre-seed funding from Witamax to strengthen its coverage of the five largest regions of Morocco. It also plans further expansion in Africa, starting with West Africa.
“We are extremely grateful to Witamax for supporting our vision from the start. This funding allows us to broaden our geographic coverage and further improve the quality of our services,” Darui said. “Our goal is to become a key player in logistics between Africa and Europe, offering innovative technological solutions to a sector undergoing transformation.”
