Award Name: The Urban Logistics Award

Company: Packfleet

Packfleet, an all-electric courier based in London, is enabling independent businesses to offer world-class delivery by giving the sector an Uber-style wake-up call.

Founded by a team of early Monzo employees in 2021, the B Corp startup has grown to a team of 100, and now delivers for over 180 businesses.

In 2022, Packfleet achieved an impressive 10x growth.

Packfleet is green, sustainable, and dedicated to putting smiles on the face of everyone from merchants to their customers and staff.

Packfleet’s tech can predict delivery times within the minute, and its in-house routing engines mean every driver is on the most efficient route available – reducing carbon wherever possible.

Packfleet raised an £8 million seed round from leading investors including Creandum – early backers of Spotify – and General Catalyst, who helped fund Airbnb and Deliveroo.

Drivers are paid 30% higher than industry-average wages and get six months of paid parental leave, private healthcare and life insurance, and much more.

Packfleet is an example of how to do it right in a world of parcel failure and media horror stories.
