Snapdeal acquires mobility solutions company

Aiming to further strengthen its leadership in the mobile commerce domain, Snapdeal has acquired Letsgomo Labs, a mobility solutions company, a top official of the e-commerce major said on Monday.

Mobile is one of the key growth drivers of e-commerce in the country. It has been a key focus area for Snapdeal as well.

"Mobile is one of our key focus areas and in a span of just two years, the medium has proved to be one of the biggest growth drivers for the company," Rohit Bansal, co-founder, Snapdeal, said in a statement here.

"Delivering a great user experience across varying data connections and numerous handsets being used in the country is the guiding principle for our mobile initiatives," he added.

Already, 75 percent of the orders on Snapdeal come via mobile-based transactions, the company said.

"Mobile will continue to drive e-commerce in the country and how companies utilise this platform will be a key success determinant. We look forward to building world class mobile technology at Snapdeal and set new benchmarks for the industry in this space," Manav Kamboj, co-founder, Letsgomo said.
