DETAILS ABOUT ACQUISITION

The group has acquired the startup for an amount of $14.7 million. The deal was in all cash form. An additional $ 5 million will be given to the employees in order to compensate the situation.

Amazon’s take was very clear stating that the point of sale offering of Perpule is very innovative that helps the country’s businesses to enter into the online domain. It is an important step in making the overall experience more efficient and convenient.

The spokesperson further added that “We are excited to have the Perpule team join us to focus on providing growth opportunities for businesses of all sizes in India while raising the bar of the shopping experience for Indian customers.”

 

The actual reason behind this acquisition was also that the major product of the company was not getting enough response from the population. The best way to continue further was to get yourself acquired and still serve the customers.

 

The question is Why did Amazon chose Perpule??

The truth is that Amazon has made a lot of investment in the physical stores in the country so that they are able to establish a network across the major marketplace. The company is currently targeting to get into the physical space as delivery stands at point in this case.
