## About

Based in California, US, and founded in 2020 by Paul Foley, Bulk Exchange operates as a provider of bulk materials construction materials marketplace that enables construction companies and contractors to purchase and sell bulk commodities. In September 2025, Bulk Exchange raised USD 8 million in seed funding co-led by new investors 6th Man Ventures and Robot Ventures, with participation from other new investors Big Brain Holdings, Chapter One, Mirana Ventures, and Wintermute Ventures. Individual investors also participated in the round.

Bulk Exchange is a developer of a digital marketplace platform designed specifically for the wholesale materials business. This technology helps customers find and order materials online, coordinate trucks, monitor electronic tickets, and keep transaction data on their personal dashboard. This makes app feature definition easier for estimators, faster material procurement for suppliers, and helps dumpsites find suitable places for material disposal or recycling.

The company plans to use the September 2025 funding to build a Solana-based perps DEX addressing network congestion and execution speed by integrating directly into the validator stack.
