HomeRun, a quick-commerce platform for construction materials, has raised $12 million in a round led by Nexus Venture Partners, announced on August 6, 2026.
Key Takeaways
The Problem It Attacks
A stalled construction site is expensive by the hour. Cement, steel, tiles and fittings are still bought through fragmented dealer networks with unreliable delivery windows. HomeRun applies the quick-commerce playbook — forward stocking, fixed delivery promise, app-based reordering — to that supply chain.
Questions Readers Ask
Who invested in HomeRun?
Nexus Venture Partners led the $12 million round, with other investors participating.
What does HomeRun sell?
Construction and building materials delivered to site on a same-day or next-slot promise.
Why It Matters
Quick commerce in India is moving out of groceries. Construction is a far larger basket size with lower churn, and it is the first B2B category where the model's delivery economics plausibly work.
