The company originally operated as Jello Labs, and announced the name change to Spring in July 2014 when it raised $7.5 million in Series A round funding led by Thrive Capital.[7][8] The company chose the name Spring to mirror the shopping area on Spring Street in SoHo, Manhattan.[9] The app was officially launched on August 14, 2014 with 250 brands selling their products on the iPhone-based platform.[10] In April 2015, Spring raised $25 million in a Series B round of venture funding led by Box Group that included Yuri Milner, Google Ventures and Thrive Capital.[11] Spring launched a desktop version of the shopping platform in November 2015.[12][13] In March 2016, Spring launched a "personal shopping assistant" on Facebook's bot store.[14] In December 2016, Spring had 1,300 brands on the platform including Marc Jacobs, Helmut Lang and Coach. Spring raised $65 million in a Series C round of venture funding led by Fidelity Investments that included previous investors in May 2017.[15] OperationsSpring was launched using a mobile first or m-commerce strategy and the company operated without a website until 2015.[12] It does not stock any inventory directly, and instead uses a drop shipping methodology to fulfill orders.[16] The site also curates personalized collections and offers users brand recommendations.[17] References1. ^{{cite
