Today ChannelAdvisor announced that it has acquired the e-commerce company Marketworks. The offices in Atlanta, GA; London, England; Germany; and Melbourne, Australia will be added to ChannelAdvisor along with the product offerings like Marketworks’ Professional Web Store.
As far as marketing, Wingo said, “We’ve got to figure out the branding. We’ll have Merchant and Marketworks. We may keep those names, we may choose to rebrand to make it clear. But (Marketworks) will be a product offering of ChannelAdvisor rather than a separate company.”
So far the news has made Auction Bytes (eBay Services Consolidation: ChannelAdvisor Acquires Marketworks), Tech Journal South (RTP’s ChannelAdvisor buys Marketworks), News Observer (ChannelAdvisor buys Atlanta company), and here as well as the official press release on both homepages: http://ww2.marketworks.com, http://www.channeladvisor.com
Following the acquisition, the company says it will have 5,500 customers globally; $2.5 billion in annual gross merchandise value; and offices in the RTP), Seattle, Washington; Atlanta, GA; Bacharach and Berlin, Germany; London, and Melbourne, Australia.
I’m sure we will hear more about it as the day goes on, the news is only 3 hours old at this point.
