About Gently

Gently is a logistics start-up with significant pre-seed funding, led by a team of successful serial entrepreneurs in the space building their most ambitious project yet.

Gently enables ALL retailers to provide same-day delivery and fulfillment that meets the expectations of modern consumers. Retail is stuck with legacy logistics infrastructure and partners that were never built for modern consumer habits. Gently changes this by turning delivery into a value add for retailers and customers alike. Consumers unlock lightning-fast deliveries from their favorite retailers without compromising on customer service; retail brands leverage a new channel with customers, increasing retention and revenue.

Gently started delivering in April 2023 and is now scaling with large enterprise brands and retailers. Currently delivering to all of LA, Gently is targeting further Tier-1 US markets within the first 12 months.
