Trellus another one: Congratulations to our friends over at Trellus Same-Day Local Delivery, the Long Beach-based last-mile delivery startup that’s roared passed a promising milestone.

Trellus – which launched in February 2021 (in the teeth of the COVID lockdowns) to facilitate same-day product deliveries (50 pounds or less) from mom-and-pops registered on the digital Trellus Marketplace – has signed its 250th Long Island small business: Madison’s Niche, an independent lifestyle boutique boasting five brick-and-mortar shops across Nassau and Suffolk counties.

With plans already afoot for a New York metropolitan area expansion – and a Series A funding round slated for this summer – the gig-driver network and technology platform’s quick rise to 250 member companies is a very good sign, according to Trellus co-founder and CEO Adam Haber. “It’s exciting to see the rapid growth of Trellus as we help Long Island’s small businesses … compete against e-commerce giants with on-demand last-mile delivery,” Haber said this week.
