The round was led by U.S. venture capital firm CRV, with participation from Samsung Electronics and Aglaé Ventures, the investment firm operated by LVMH Group chairman Bernard Arnault.

Inditex, the parent company of Zara, is one of the startup’s early investors.
Co-founder Carla Gómez Cano said the company isn’t stopping at pilot projects—its goal is to push straight to commercial rollouts for logistics and operations teams. Beyond retail, Theker plans to expand into mor
