It’s exciting to see a great team we’ve worked closely with for a few years get a huge vote of confidence. Montreal-based men’s clothing retailer Frank & Oak just raised a Series A investment of $5 million led by Lightbank, the VC firm started by Groupon’s founders Eric Lefkosky and Brad Keywell with participation from Bertelsmann Digital Media Investments, Rho Canada Ventures and earlier backers Real Ventures.
We were thrilled with the news as this could not have happened to a better team. Read more about it on BetaKit, Wall Street Journal, Techcrunch, The Next Web, GigaOM and Venture Beat.

We’re proud to be have helped the team with user acquisition both at the Modasuite stage, through the pivot to Frank & Oak, and culminating with this round of funding that will allow them to grow their team.
