Sojo Industries, which specializes in advanced robotics, mobile manufacturing, and modular packaging systems, this week said it has raised $40 million. The Bristol, Pa.-based company said it will use the funding to scale Sojo Flight deployments, enhance the Sojo Shield platform, and expand automation across Sojo’s “atoms to bits” platform.

“This investment marks a pivotal moment in our journey,” said Barak Bar-Cohen, founder and CEO of Sojo. “As consumer demand for variety and customization accelerates, brands are increasingly challenged by legacy packaging models that are slow, inflexible, and costly.”

Founded in 2021, Sojo Industries delivers advanced robotics, mobile manufacturing, and modular packaging solutions for the food and beverage industry. The company has additional offices in Redlands, Calif.; Indianapolis; and Temple, Texas.

Packaging systems serve the Fortune 500

Sojo delivers its systems both on-site at customer facilities and via its national network of self-managed sortation facilities. The company designed its technology to meet the rising demand for high-speed, high-throughput, variety-pack production. It does this by helping brands streamline operations with greater speed, flexibility, and visibility over supply chains, it claimed.

Sojo’s hardware and software systems serve multiple Fortune 500 companies, emerging brands, established co-manufacturers, and distributors across food, beverage, e-commerce, and broader consumer packaged goods (CPG) sectors.

S2G Investments, a multi-stage investment firm focused on scaling solutions across food and agriculture, oceans, and energy, provided the financing for the round.

“Sojo is addressing a core pain point in the food and beverage supply chain by tackling the fragmented, manual repackaging and distribution processes that lead to hidden costs and operational drag,” said Matthew Walker, managing director of S2G’s food and agriculture strategy. “As complexity grows, brands need more agility, and traditional workflows that have multiple handoffs and limited ability to adapt to dynamic market demands are no longer sustainable.”

“S2G has deep experience in sustainable supply chain investments, and with their partnership, we are committed to delivering alternative technology solutions that reduce freight, labor, and emissions, while helping brands drive profitable innovation and get on shelf faster,” Bar-Cohen said.

Sojo Flight provides mobile manufacturing lines

The Sojo Flight system delivers mobile manufacturing lines that can be deployed and fully operational in as little as one hour. The company claimed that this enables rapid variety-pack production directly on-site for customers. This is in addition to its national footprint of production and assembly facilities.

Sojo also said it eliminates the cost and complexity of shipping products to separate co-packing locations. It can also help manufacturers and brands experience dramatic savings on freight and packaging costs.

The company also offers Sojo Shield, a vertically integrated track-and-trace software platform. It said the platform delivers real-time geolocation, analytics, and operational insights across the supply chain. The platform allows users to manage inventory, product quality, and logistics mapping capabilities.

Customers have saved more than 5 million freight miles through the platform, said Sojo. This has created impactful emissions savings and reduced inefficiency across packaging value chains today, the company claimed.
