South African e-commerce startup TUNL gets funding to accelerate growth of its exports platform
- TUNL, a South African parcel shipping platform, has secured $1 million in pre-seed funding from investors.
- The platform aims to help e-commerce merchants save between 50% and 80% on international shipping costs.
- TUNL has grown 35% month-on-month since its launch in 2022 and plans to expand in other African markets.
The success and growth of TUNL demonstrate the demand for affordable international shipping solutions for e-commerce merchants in South Africa and other emerging markets.
