The Crewdible team

The e27 Community has voted –and the winner for October’s Startup of the Month is Indonesian micro warehousing platform Crewdible!

Startup of the Month is a fun initiative that gets our community on Telegram to vote for the startup that has made notable achievement or milestone during the month.

Crewdible stole our attention with its US$1.5 million pre-Series A announcement led by Global Founders Capital (GFC) recently.

The company helps small, individual online sellers on social media and e-commerce platforms by turning empty facilities (houses, offices, and warehouses) into a warehouse for their inventories.

Its history started in 2015 when founder Dhana Galindra ran a sporting brand called Lean. As his business grows, Galindra began partnering with staffs from logistics companies, paying them a commission for storing Lean’s inventories in their houses.

This system enables the business to grow without renting a specialised warehouse or hiring dedicated staff, and the founder eventually developed a mobile app and turned it into a separate business.

Congratulations to the winner!
