DepoDone

What DepoDone does

DepoDone, formally Depodone Technology and Supply Chain Solutions Limited, is a London-headquartered supply chain platform founded in 2021 that targets food and drink SMEs. The company positions itself as a fifth-party logistics (5PL) service provider, operating a single end-to-end platform that covers demand forecasting, raw materials procurement, manufacturing, packaging, logistics, warehousing, customs compliance, sales channel management, trade finance, and reporting. A complementary wholesale online marketplace module connects independent food producers with buyers, and the company runs separate self-serve portals for suppliers (panel.depodone.com) and buyers (depodone.co.uk), with bilingual English/Turkish support reflecting its geographic focus on the UK, Europe, and Turkey.

Technically, the platform is built around operational visibility and process automation: real-time order tracking, pre-monthend margin visibility, automated buyer followup, and a working capital access layer enabled by verified supply chain data. Implementation is delivered through a three-step onboarding process in which a dedicated supply chain transformation expert maps the client's products, buyers and pricing logic into the system, with the company explicitly emphasizing that no system replacement or in-house tech team is required. Differentiators cited by DepoDone include domain specialization in food and drink, on-the-ground expertise across UK, Europe and Turkey, and a data asset that it leverages to unlock working capital options for clients.

The business model combines a customized subscription (5PL service contract, billed monthly on a quote basis) with marketplace commissions on transactions between suppliers and buyers. The go-to-market is platform-led, with self-serve registration portals, content marketing on depodone.com, and named account management for onboarded SMEs. Customer logos span recognizable UK brands such as Forest Feast, Teapigs and Rude Health alongside a long tail of Turkish food and beverage producers. The company has raised a $500,000 seed round from Red Carpet Capital (June 2022), operates a team of 11-50 employees, and is GDPR compliant.
