1MRobotics, an Israeli startup that develops robotic nano-fulfillment centers, creating the next-gen dark stores designed specifically to meet the urgent need for rapid delivery, has come out of stealth mode with $25 million raised in a Series A round of investment led by Ibex Investors. 1MRobotics also revealed new collaborations with leading Fortune 500 CPG brands and Q-commerce players.
1MRobotics, which is headquartered in Tel Aviv, Israel, was founded in 2021 by Eyal Yair, Co-Founder & CEO, and Roee Tuval, Co-Founder & COO. Yair previously co-founded and led four companies and sold 2 of them. Tuval, ex-IDF elite tech unit, brings a rich background in hardware, software, robotics, and electro-optics and over 15 years of consulting to companies in Israel and abroad.
“Last-mile delivery is a highly challenging space where any brand/retailer/operator is pushing to deliver at maximal efficiency and in the shortest time window possible. Dark stores are a new class of infrastructure that is essential for Quick-Commerce and Direct-to-Consumer retail”, said CEO Eyal Yair. “1MRobotics develops robotic nano-fulfillment centers, creating the next-gen dark stores designed specifically to meet the ever-growing need for rapid delivery and enabling quick expansion and optimal unit economics. Our systems are shipped globally inside standard shipping containers, ready to operate. On-site, the systems are deployable either as standalone units (within the containers) or inside any retail facility – allowing 1MRobotics the flexibility to position its units at any point around the world. 1MRobotics brings full automation and a modular approach, enabling rapid deployment at a global scale while ensuring a significant operational cost reduction. This is now a reality.”

“The next decade will be marked with consumers continuing to demand convenience and expecting retailers and brands to supply their favorite products faster and cheaper. However, today, nearly all existing last-mile facilities are operating in a manual way and inefficiently. This is where 1MRobotics comes in – providing a “plug-and-play” full automation solution for last mile fulfillment across nearly any category, while reducing cost and associated environmental impact. We believe the future of commerce is headed towards a network of fully automated and distributed nano-fulfillment sites – that is exactly what 1MRobotics enables”, said Gal Gitter, Partner at Ibex Investors.
