Moovaz and shakers: Logistics start-up for global nomads secures $7 million Series A round
SINGAPORE, April 27, 2020 /PRNewswire-AsiaNet/ --

Once a demographic dominated by affluent professionals, the face of the expat 
has dramatically shifted to welcome almost everyone, including a new generation 
of free-spirited, tech-savvy, globally-mobile adventurers keen to experience 
the world -- and Moovaz is helping them live the dream. Powered by smart 
technology, Moovaz is reimagining logistics with simple, efficient moving 
services for a new generation of expat, and has secured a Series A round 
totalling USD 7 million, including previous convertibles, to do it.

An international relocation services platform headquartered in Singapore, 
Moovaz was founded in 2018 by Lee Junxian and 2 other Co-founders. The vision 
was simple: to promote a life well moved, for today's global citizens. With the 
ease of travel and rise in flexible work, more people are choosing to forgo 
their home bases in pursuit of the digital nomad lifestyle. But the process is 
typically headache-inducing and comes with many roadblocks, from extremely high 
costs to slow shipping times and storage container issues. Moovaz turns the 
traditional logistics industry upside down, providing a smart, curated platform 
connecting customers with the right services at the right time.

"Relocating from one country to another is a huge logistic undertaking. You 
have to uproot everything, manage accommodation and travel plans, apply for 
visas, open new bank accounts. Basically move your entire life," says Lee 
Junxian, Co-Founder and CEO of Moovaz. "Despite all the tech innovations out 
there, relocation services remain notoriously slow, expensive and inefficient. 
As the world opens up, these challenges need to be addressed. Our goal is to 
use innovation to provide a complete moving solution for global citizens, and 
eliminate the headache that comes with moving your life."

On the Moovaz platform, customers can get instant shipping prices and track 
their belongings. Using automation and data, Moovaz captures customer 
information and profiles their needs before connecting them with their global 
network of contractors. However, Moovaz goes beyond the expectations of a 
relocation services company; instead harnessing technology and automation to 
provide a seamless moving process for customers. 

Dubbing themselves "Life Movers", Moovaz helps global citizens move their 
lives, while also connecting them to their future communities. During the 
process, Moovaz provides tailored recommendations for essential extra services 
to ensure as smooth a move  as possible, from connecting utilities to buying 
insurance or setting up the all-important Wi-Fi. 

While the lion's share of its customers hail from the Asia-Pacfic, Moovaz plans 
to scale rapidly and expand its partnership base. Now, backed by the likes of 
Quest Ventures, who are backed by Singapore's sovereign wealth fund, Supply 
chain conglomerate YCH Group and deep-tech investors SGInnovate, it can do that 
and moreā€”and has its sights firmly set on strengthening its services and 
facilities to become an industry leader in the relocation field. 

This means launching go-to market campaigns in new countries, raising capital, 
expanding their team, and welcoming new partners to optimize each customers 
life journey, at a functional level and an emotional one.
