WeCommerce Holdings Ltd. (“WeCommerce” or the “Company”)
(TSXV: WE), a leading provider of ecommerce enablement software
and tools for merchants, today announced the successful closing of
the previously-announced acquisition (the “Acquisition”) of
Kno Technologies Inc. (“KnoCommerce”).
KnoCommerce is a leading ecommerce survey and insights platform
provider that enables merchants to capture and act on zero-party
data collected directly from customers. Through embeddable surveys
and response-driven actions coupled with deep integrations,
KnoCommerce helps merchants build up owned customer data and
attribute customers to any channel, ensuring each customer can be
nurtured throughout the discovery, conversion, and retention
lifecycle.
"I’m thrilled to formally welcome the KnoCommerce team to our
growing portfolio of companies and brands," said WeCommerce CEO
Alex Persson. “KnoCommerce has a superior management team tackling
one of today’s biggest industry challenges and opportunities. Their
business is also highly complementary to our existing portfolio,
and we’re looking forward to partnering with them to accelerate
their growth trajectory. As zero-party data continues to play an
increasingly vital role in ecommerce and overall customer
understanding, KnoCommerce is well positioned to become the leading
zero-party data platform for merchants worldwide.”
KnoCommerce was incubated by Lunar Solar Group, a leading
ecommerce and digital growth consultancy. KnoCommerce will be led
by current CEO Jeremiah Prummer and will operate as an independent
brand within the WeCommerce portfolio. This acquisition furthers
WeCommerce’s strategy to build, acquire and invest in the world’s
top ecommerce technology businesses.
