Autofixer a atras 3 milioane de euro în finanțare venture debt pentru extindere în Europa
Autofixer, o platformă poloneză online de piese auto, a atras 3 milioane de euro în finanțare de tip venture debt pentru a se extinde în Europa, a-și dezvolta platforma și a-și crește echipa. Finanțarea a venit de la Orbit Capital și, potrivit sursei, acest tip de finanțare permite accesarea de capital fără diluarea acționarilor existenți.
Context
Autofixer este „a Polish online car parts platform”. Sursa precizează că Autofixer „was founded in 2021 by the team behind Renee and born2be, two e-commerce brands that were later consolidated under AZA Group”. În același text, se menționează că grupul „generated approximately €114 million in annual revenue at its peak”.
Sursa mai afirmă că „The earlier growth was backed by Montis Capital, which invested in the company in both 2023 and 2025.”
În ceea ce privește problema pe care o adresează platforma, sursa spune: „The premise is simple: buying car parts online is harder than it looks.” De asemenea, sunt menționate „The 360 million vehicles in Europe” și faptul că acestea „require a wide range of components”, iar „even within a single model, parts can differ significantly across production years and trim levels.” Textul mai notează că „parts that look alike are not always interchangeable” și că „the information needed to identify the right component remains scattered across manufacturers and distributors.”
Ce se schimbă / Ce se anunță
Autofixer „has raised €3 million in venture debt financing to expand further across Europe, develop its platform and grow its team.” Finanțarea „came from Orbit Capital, a growth-stage venture debt and growth equity firm, whose portfolio includes Preply, Booksy, MEWS, Rohlik, among others.”
Sursa precizează și efectul acestui tip de finanțare: „The venture debt financing allows Autofixer to access capital without diluting existing shareholders.” Wiktor Namysł, General Partner la Orbit Capital, declară: „The company’s rapid growth and strong business metrics demonstrate both clear product-market fit and the effectiveness of its business model. At this stage, venture debt is a natural way to support further growth, providing additional capital to scale the business without diluting existing shareholders.”

Conform sursei, finanțarea este pentru „expand further across Europe, develop its platform and grow its team.”
Sursa descrie și funcționarea platformei: Autofixer „fixes this problem by combining vehicle data with parts catalogues, supplier listings, and records of previous part-to-vehicle matches.” Platforma „relies on automation and AI to organise product descriptions and part numbers, helping drivers find components that are compatible with their specific cars.” CEO-ul Autofixer, Szymon Jezierski, spune: „For a driver, buying the wrong part means more than returning a product. It means starting the search again and delaying the repair. We want to help drivers make an informed choice before placing an order. We bring together information about their car and the available parts so they can choose the right product without having to search through and compare multiple catalogues themselves.”
