Kojo, a leading construction procurement and materials management platform, has raised $10 million in Series C extension funding from Wesco International (NYSE: WCC), a global leader in business-to-business distribution, logistics services, and supply chain solutions. The investment strengthens an ongoing partnership that aims to digitize and streamline materials coordination across the construction industry.
By integrating Wesco’s extensive distribution network with Kojo’s AI-powered platform, contractors will gain real-time visibility into materials from quote to jobsite delivery. The partnership represents a significant step toward full automation of procurement workflows, helping contractors minimize delays, reduce manual tasks, and improve accuracy throughout project lifecycles.
Through this collaboration, Kojo and Wesco will empower construction teams to eliminate manual data entry and email-based tracking, access live material status updates, and use AI-driven tools to automate submittals, ordering, and delivery scheduling. Contractors can also deploy AI agents to assist with procurement activities, follow-ups, and scheduling coordination.
Wesco’s investment in Kojo is part of a broader strategy to leverage AI and digital innovation to improve supply chain performance and construction efficiency. Wesco joins a group of existing investors, including Battery Ventures, 8VC, Schneider Electric, RXR, Suffolk Construction, Human Capital, and BoxGroup.
Kojo currently serves more than 600 leading contractors in the United States and Canada, who collectively purchase over $5 billion in materials annually through the platform. With the new funding, Kojo plans to accelerate product development and expand integration capabilities with large distributors and contractors.
