About Telio:
Telio is using technology and data to build Vietnam’s largest B2B commerce platform. The country’s large,
unorganized traditional retail sector accounts for almost 85% of FMCG sales. Telio connects small, traditional
retailers with brands and wholesalers on a centralized platform. By aggregating demand, Telio is able to provide
small retailers with more choice, better pricing and more efficient logistics through economies of scale. For brands
and wholesalers, Telio offers more efficient turnover, reduced costs and better end-customer level data. Telio was
founded by a serial entrepreneurial team with strong experience in tech, retail, logistics and financial services. Telio’s
founder SyPhong founded two other companies in Vietnam before starting Telio. SyPhong drew inspiration for Telio
after being selected for the Alibaba Leadership Program in 2018 and learning about the much-advanced B2B
landscape in China and India.
Telio belongs to one of the first investments of Sequoia Capital in Vietnam‘s soil, and has raised a total of USD 26.5
million from Tiger Global Management, Sequoia Capital India, GGV Capital and RTP Global in two financing rounds.
Telio is on course to become Vietnam’s largest B2B trading platform.
We are deeply passionate about B2B commerce and are eager to leverage the power of technology and data to
create Vietnam’s biggest B2B trading platform. In pursuit of this objective, we are always looking for excellent team
members to join our geographically distributed technology team to fulfill this great vision.
