About HIVED 📦

At HIVED, we’re steamrolling forward as one of Europe’s fastest growing startups, and our momentum shows no signs of slowing.

Based in London, we are a climate and logistics start-up building the first sustainable parcel delivery network at scale, powered by a 100% electric fleet. In an ever-growing industry where unreliable service has long been the norm, HIVED has been built from the ground‑up to meet the demands of modern consumers and disrupt parcel delivery. A tech company at heart, our talent and technology is laser‑focused on delivering the best possible delivery experience for end‑customers and meeting the needs of our retail partners.

From our drivers to our data engineers, we are constantly working to improve this customer experience that makes us deliver better.

Already trusted by leading international brands such as John Lewis, Nespresso, Uniqlo, H&M brands and more, we are solidifying our position as the leaders in Europe to tackle this growing market. Our tight‑knit team is made up of ex‑Revolut, Bain, Hello Fresh, ASOS, Apple and Google employees, and we are backed by some of Europe’s leading investors and VCs in climate‑tech, logistics and mobility including Planet A Ventures, Maersk Growth, Pale Blue Dot VC, Eka Ventures, Nordic Ninja VC and the British government.

We’re passionate about driving innovation and redefining the future of delivery.
