XY Retail secures seed round from Monta Vista Capital – Retail Technology Innovation Hub

PoS and omnichannel commerce solution startup XY Retail has closed a $4 million seed round led by Monta Vista Capital with participation from Stage 1 Ventures. The cash will be used to accelerate the company’s global roll-out of its XY platform to luxury brands.The aim is to help them digitise their enterprises and manage their entire global retail operations— from data decisioning, stock management, and order fulfilment to hyper-personalising the clienteling and merchandising experience. “The luxury retail market will reach $296.9 billion by 2026, yet it has been massively underserved by technology providers,” says Roger Krakoff, General Partner at Monta Vista Capital.“To thrive, luxury retailers need their tech stack to equal the likes of today’s e-commerce giants.”“But they demand an even greater focus on personalisation, high touch interactions, and seamless connection to the in-person experience.
