US-based on-demand fuel supplier Filld has secured $15m in a series B round co-led by fuel retailer Parkland Fuel Corporation and venture capital firm Calibrate Ventures.
Investment firm Cendana Capital also took part in the round, as did Lucas Venture Group, Javelin Venture Partners and Hallador Investment Advisors.
Founded in 2015, Filld runs a service that allows motorists to fill their petrol tanks from one of the company’s mobile refuel trucks by booking a convenient timeslot for delivery through its mobile app or website.
The service, which is open to individuals and enterprises, charges a fee ranging from approximately $3 to $9 depending on the time selected.
The series B cash will help Filld upgrade its underlying technology as it looks to enter new markets and broaden services available in its existing locations of Seattle, Portland, Vancouver and the San Francisco Bay Area. Doug Haugh, president of Parkland’s USA subsidiary, has joined the company’s board of directors.
Filld has now raised approximately $31m in funding, including $9.7m from an August 2017 series A round led by Shea Ventures, the corporate venturing arm of property developer JF Shea.
The series A also featured Javelin, Lucas Venture, Cendana, PivotNorth Capital and Lightspeed Venture Partners, and came after Filled raised $3.3m of equity funding from undisclosed investors in 2015, according to a regulatory filing.
