Smart logistics for cities, brands, and people.
bace is a Dortmund-based start-up for urban logistics infrastructure. We develop modular hubs that combine package logistics, click & collect, vending, and local services into a flexible system.
Our vision:
Why there is bace
Public space is becoming scarcer. Deliveries are blocking streets.
We believe: infrastructure must adapt and focus on the needs of people and the environment.
Therefore, we are building a platform and more intuitive hardware that is flexible, open, and ready for use – for merchants, city residents, developers, and public partners.
Who is behind bace
bace was initiated by BEHIND VENTURES – founded by Ruben & Joshua Dahmen, the Dortmund family office DERWALD, and the leading producer from Lüdenscheid J. D. GECK, to redefine urban logistics: open to all, sustainable at its core, and close to people's everyday lives.
What drives them: infrastructure that truly works – for the city of today and tomorrow.
We are bace
Fewer emissions, better utilization through centralization
Each hub adapts to the location and the local supply and demand structure.
The greatest potential of the last mile lies in collaborations – not in traditional competition.
Simple, intuitive, accessible
bace is supported by investors who share our vision:
The last mile is not a bottleneck – but a space for change.
