## History

GrocerKey was founded in 2014 by Jeremy Neren in Madison, Wisconsin.[1][2] Before launching the company, Neren started a grocery delivery service in 2006 for college students at the University of Wisconsin, Madison. He worked on the company for 9 years before taking his experience to launch GrocerKey.[2][3] In 2015, GrocerKey participated in Gener8tor, a Wisconsin startup accelerator program.[4][5]

In 2015, Wisconsin-based grocery chain Woodman’s Markets signed up to be a GrocerKey customer and also became the company’s lead investor.[5] That same year, company closed a seed round of equity and convertible debt funding form Woodman’s, SymphonyAlpha Ventures, Gener8tor, Angels on the Water, and the BrightStar Wisconsin Foundation.[5]

In April 2018, the company announced that it had secured $2.5 million in angel investments from Woodman's, dunnhumby Ventures and other Midwestern-based angel investors.[6]
