Huboo, a UK-based logistics service for online retailers, has raised £14m ($18.1m) in series A funding from investors including Hearst Ventures and Maersk Growth, subsidiaries of media group Hearst and shipping group AP Moller–Maersk.

Venture capital firm Stride.VC led the round, which included Episode 1, Ada Ventures and True Capital.

Huboo will use the money on software development, UK expansion that will take place through opening a third warehouse and establishing an on-the-ground European presence.
