NEW YORK, Jan. 28, 2020 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Mohawk Group Holdings, Inc. (NASDAQ: MWK) (“Mohawk”) the tech-enabled, consumer product company, today announced that it has launched its proprietary AIMEE software platform on Amazon’s Marketplace Appstore.
The Marketplace Appstore is a one-stop-shop where the small- and medium-sized businesses that sell on Amazon can more easily discover quality applications to help them automate, manage and grow their business. Accessible from Seller Central, the Marketplace Appstore features applications created by Amazon and external developers and covers a range of functionalities and service offerings.
"The launch of our AIMEE app is an exciting step in the evolution of our Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) growth strategy,” said Mohawk Group chief executive officer, Yaniv Sarig. “We are now able to reach a wider audience of potential customers, especially small and medium sized businesses that sell on Amazon. At the same time, we continue to focus on traditional brick and mortar brands looking to maximize their direct-to-consumer operations. We are very excited about the growth prospects that we believe lie ahead for Mohawk, which include higher margin opportunities through our SaaS offering as well as the launch of more of our own products in existing and new categories.”
