Poland's sun.store, a B2B marketplace for solar and energy storage equipment, has raised €6 million in a seed funding round to enhance merchant support and expand its team in Warsaw.
- sun.store was founded in 2023 by Agata Krawiec-Rokita and Bartosz Majewski as a digital B2B marketplace for solar panels, inverters, and energy storage systems across Europe.
- The platform digitizes procurement, enabling installers, distributors, and EPCs to compare offers, check availability, and complete transactions securely in one place.
- sun.store reports that it has grown to 35,000 registered users, 2,500 unique buyers, and 500+ active sellers offering over €1.5 billion in components, facilitating 1.4 GW of traded photovoltaics and 1,000+ monthly transactions.
- Buyers benefit from access to 200+ brands across 1,000+ warehouses, transparent pricing, and secure payments, while sellers can manage stock, import products in bulk, and streamline sales through a unified dashboard.
Details of the deal
- The investment was co-led by Contrarian Ventures, Market One Capital, and Movens Capital, with support from FJ Labs, Push Ventures, and Aidiom.
- sun.store aims to accelerate its growth by focusing on three key areas: advancing product development to launch new features that make transactions faster, safer, and easier; strengthening merchant support by onboarding more sellers, expanding technical assistance, and ensuring product reliability; and scaling its team, particularly across commercial, product, and operational roles in Warsaw and other markets.
“Our goal is simple: to bring structure, speed, and transparency to solar procurement. This funding gives us the resources to scale faster and expand our reach at a time when the sector needs it most," co-founder and CEO of Sun.store, Agata Krawiec-Rokita, commented in a statement.
