PorterLogic Raises Funds from TitletownTech to Accelerate Growth

ATLANTA, Ga. (Feb. 15, 2023) — PorterLogic is thrilled to welcome our first institutional investor — TitletownTech, a Wisconsin-based venture capital firm formed from a partnership between the Green Bay Packers and Microsoft.

PorterLogic builds the modern supply chain stack for ambitious brands. Founded by two Georgia Tech engineers, PorterLogic drives profitable and efficient growth for our customers by addressing gaps across their supply chains.


“We are so excited to be partnering with TitletownTech to help serve more brands,” said PorterLogic Co-founder and CCO Anya Skomorokhova. “The support of supply chain veterans allows us to grow faster and bring solutions to more customer problems.”

PorterLogic plans to deploy the new capital to reach new customers and accelerate product development with key hires across the sales, product and customer success teams.

“I’ve always felt supply chain teams are like the offensive lineman of a company — all the blame when something goes wrong but never any glory — and it was time that distribution and fulfillment teams got the systems they deserve,” said PorterLogic CEO and Founder Jonathan Porter. “I was in the trenches implementing WMSs for years and saw the inefficiencies associated with the status quo. PorterLogic introduces flexibility and agility these teams never previously had access to.”

“We’re excited to invest in PorterLogic,” said TitletownTech Partner Edward Ward. “Jonathan and Anya are a phenomenal leadership team, and their low-to-no-code automation solution brings unprecedented flexibility and efficiency to small-to-medium-sized supply chain operations that don’t want to implement a rigid, costly and time-consuming ERP tool.”

Australian supermarket chain rolls out AI-powered grocery carts

Grocery shoppers in Australia will soon be able to zip in and out of the store in record time, bypassing the lines for cashiers or self-checkout kiosks altogether. They can just walk in, make their selections, and walk out with their bags in hand.

The secret to this express shopping experience is the “Caper Cart,” an AI (artificial intelligence)-powered smart trolley from San Francisco-based Instacart. In its first deployment in the Asia Pacific (APAC) region, the system is being tested by Coles Supermarkets, a food and beverage retailer with more than 1,800 grocery and liquor stores throughout the country.

How green is your glue?

If you’re looking to make the packaging process more eco-friendly, the obvious place to start is with the box itself. And that’s exactly what Salt Lake City-based Packsize did when it made its initial foray into sustainable packaging back in 2002. That year, the company launched its first product, an innovative on-demand packaging system designed to reduce cardboard waste (and the need for filler material) by creating a right-sized box for each shipment.

Now the company is ready for the next step: greening up the glue.
