As the largest and fastest-growing Asian E-grocer in North America, Weee! just announced it has raised $315 million in a Series D round led by DST Global, with participation from Tiger Global Management, Blackstone Group and Arena Holdings. The Fremont, California-based company has raised a total of $415 million, with Bloomberg reporting a $2.8 billion valuation.
How does Weee! grows into an unicorn startup as an Asian E-grocer in north America? Larry Liu, the founder & CEO of Weee! will join HYSTA Talk and share his entrepreneurial journey with us and how they achieved 700% YoY growth.
