Thrasio, a Boston MA-based consumer goods company, raised $1 Billion in Series D funding.
The round, which was in addition to the $650m incremental debt facility announced last month and brought total funding to more than $3.4 billion, was led by Silver Lake and Advent International with participation from Upper90, Oaktree Capital Management, L.P., PEAK6 Investments and Corner Capital.
The company intends to use the funds to continue acquiring brands – both domestically and internationally – while expanding distribution through additional channels.
