CarLotz raises $30 million to finance national expansion
September 19, 2017

The company, founded in 2011, plans to use the capital to add a minimum of 10 new locations over the next two years, said Michael Bor, CarLotz co-founder and CEO. It now has five locations – three in Virginia and two in North Carolina.
