东南亚规模最大、发展最快的酒店管理和预订平台RedDoorz周一宣布完成7000万美元融资,启明创投参与本次投资。此次融资是其C轮融资的一部分。

RedDoorz总部位于新加坡,在新加坡、印度尼西亚、菲律宾和越南的80多个城市开展业务,目前经营1400多家经济型酒店和物业。

RedDoorz创始人兼首席执行官Amit Saberwal说:“这一轮融资证明了我们在过去几年中建立的强劲的业务增长和市场领导地位。RedDoorz在世界上一些最具活力的市场中经营,我们看到了继续发展平台和拓展新市场的巨大机会。”

RedDoorz将利用新融得的资金拓展新兴市场,规模化发展技术和客户体验项目,增加人员配置及营销投入,进一步巩固市场领导地位。公司收益的很大一部分将用于在越南建立第二技术中心,作为目前印度以外区域的技术补充。

该公司还计划在新加坡、印度尼西亚、越南和菲律宾的所有酒店加强酒店员工和质量培训项目,通过其酒店合作伙伴,该公司在该地区雇佣约1万人。

RedDoorz, Southeast Asia’s largest and fastest-growing hotel management and booking platform, announced on Monday that it raised US$70million as first close of a larger Series C funding. Qiming Venture Partners participated in the deal.

The startup operates in 80 cities across Indonesia, Singapore, the Philippines and Vietnam with over 1,400 hotels on its network.

Amit Saberwal, Founder and CEO of RedDoorz said, “This new round is a testament to our strong business growth and market leadership position we were able to build during the last few years. RedDoorz operates in some of the most dynamic markets in the world and we see tremendous opportunities to continue growing our platform and expanding into new markets.”

RedDoorz will use the new funds to launch in new markets and scale technology, customer experience projects, people and marketing investments to further strengthen its leadership position in the region. A significant portion of the latest proceeds will be used to build a second engineering hub in Vietnam which will complement the current regional tech hub based out of India.

The company also plans to ramp up its hotel staff and quality training programmes across all properties in Singapore, Indonesia, Vietnam and the Philippines as it helps employ approximately 10,000 people across the region through its hotel partners.
