Uzbekistan-based startup Delever has raised $380,000 in an investment round, the company’s founder Fakhriddin Yusupov told Spot.
The platform, which provides order and delivery management solutions for the restaurant and retail sectors, secured $300,000 from venture capital fund AloqaVentures and another $80,000 from business angel club Nexus Club.
For AloqaVentures, this marks its second investment in Delever. In 2024, the fund invested $100,000 in the company at the pre-seed stage.
The new funding will be used to develop the product, expand its functionality and enter new markets. According to the company, Delever is currently used by more than 1,400 restaurants and retail outlets, primarily in Uzbekistan and Kazakhstan.
The company’s website also lists customers in Kyrgyzstan, Azerbaijan, Georgia, Mexico and Cyprus. Pilot projects are also under way in the UAE, the United States, the Czech Republic and Italy.
Davron Parmonov, a partner at AloqaVentures and Nexus Club, noted that Delever had quickly reached break-even after its first funding round and achieved “excellent growth in seven countries”. The team plans to use the additional investment to “capture these markets and scale aggressively”.
“A restaurant that offers delivery does not need a dozen disconnected services — it needs a single system. AloqaVentures' follow-on investment is more important to us than the amount itself: the fund knew the company from the inside and decided to invest again. We will use the funds to develop the product and grow in new markets,” Fakhriddin Yusupov said.
In an interview with Spot in July 2024, Delever’s founder spoke about plans to expand into Kazakhstan and other CIS markets, as well as the Middle East and North Africa. The company also planned to improve its analytics, introduce new marketing tools and automate management processes.
Delever provides an operating system that integrates services for delivery-based businesses, including order acceptance through multiple sales channels, aggregator integrations, point-of-sale systems, delivery and courier management. The company is registered with the Astana International Financial Centre and is a resident of IT Park Uzbekistan and Astana Hub.
