Materials Market, the innovative online marketplace for heavy side building materials, has raised £2 million in a funding round led by its existing backers Fuel Ventures, with participation from new investors Active Partners (whose investments include household names like Soho House and Honest Burgers) and an assortment of experienced angel investors. In addition to the new funding, Materials Market also welcomed two new directors to the board: James Mackenzie (ex MD of Travis Perkins & Toolstation with extensive experience in the digital building materials space) and Thomas Studd (former partner at Vitruvian whose portfolio experience includes two-sided marketplaces such as AnyVan, Carwow and Lalamove).
