The Nantes startup Underdogspecialist in the reconditioning of large household appliances, of which we were talking to you a few days ago when the 2025 edition of the WE Innovate 500 is published where it occupies 126th place, completed a fundraising 7 million euros. This operation marks a recomposition of its shareholding.
Two years after its creation, the startup founded by Claire Bretton, Laura Chavigny and Léa de Fierkowsky, convinced BNP Paribas Development And Serena to join his capital. The funds Daphni (via retail dastore) and Sistafundalready present since the Seed lifting of 3.8 million euros In April 2023, also participated in this new round. Tivoli,, Leia Capital,, Future Founders remain in capital without following this new lap.
Two years after its launch, Underdog had to face logistical issues. Its growth has led it to densify its storage space, from 300 m² to 3,000 m² occupied. The Underdog workshop targets 10,000 products repaired by the end of the year.
On a market that is still not very structured – less than 3 % of the 10 million household appliances thrown each year are reconditioned – Underdog wants to position himself as an industrial player with 10,000 repaired products by the end of the year. Prices display average reductions in 30 to 50 % Compared to the new, with a two -year warranty.
