SkuVault, a cloud-based inventory and warehouse management software platform, has raised an $8 million Series A investment round led by Ballast Point Ventures with participation from Poplar Ventures and Endeavor Catalyst. Led by Endeavor Entrepreneurs Andy Eastes and Slav Ivanyuk, SkuVault is the first Louisville company to receive investment from Endeavor Catalyst.

Selected into the Endeavor network in 2016, SkuVault’s platform enables warehouse employees to fulfill customer orders more efficiently and allows purchasing managers to actively track inventory levels across disparate geographic footprints. Customers are able to scan products in and out of warehouses and retail stores via a simple barcoding system and sync real-time inventory data across multiple online marketplaces such as Amazon, Ebay and Jet.

SkuVault will use the investment to amplify marketing efforts, add to the sales force, and further enhance its software product offering.

“Billions of dollars are lost each year in the retail industry due to inefficient warehouse operations and substandard inventory processes. SkuVault’s real-time insight into inventory levels prevents overselling and out of stocks, and its barcoding and quality control features reduce picking and shipping errors, thereby increasing operational efficiency,” said SkuVault Co-Founder and Chief Executive Officer, Andy Eastes. “SkuVault is excited to partner with Ballast Point Ventures and the Series A co-investors and for the possibilities this minority investment will provide. We are looking forward to expanding our profile within eCommerce and continuing to support our long-standing customers with world-class technology tools and customer service.”
