As the lights go up and our calendar year comes to a close, we are wishing all of our portfolio companies, investors, limited partners, and community members a wonderful holiday season! We are so grateful for all of the support we've received over this past year and hope that everyone is happy, safe, and warm as we head into the holidays. We love our MetaProp family!

MetaProp Portfolio Company Saltbox has announced a $35M Series B funding round led by Cox Enterprises and Pendulum. As said by TechCrunch, Saltbox is a pioneer of what it calls “co-warehousing," allowing small businesses and e-commerce outfits to ship and store goods all in one place without lease requirements.
CEO and Co-Founder, Tyler Scriven believes that "it is a basic necessity to ensure that SMBs have access to a highly accessible, highly approachable, human-centric logistics platform that can really meet them where they are and ensure they remain not only competitive but ultimately thrive."
Congratulations to Saltbox on their big win!
