Our take
VTEX's Cloud Commerce platform enables retailers, brands and B2B manufacturers to collaborate with third party suppliers and grow their business by launching their own marketplaces.
They aim to help companies in retail, manufacturing, wholesale, grocery, consumer packaged goods and other verticals to sell more, operate more efficiently, scale seamlessly and deliver remarkable customer experiences.
In addition to garnering investment from SoftBank, and a recent growth spurt to over 800 employees, VTEX has been successful in signing up a host of global enterprises, including Sony, Walmart, Whirlpool, Coca-Cola, Stanley Black & Decker, AB InBev and Nestlé, as well as more than 3,000 others in 50 countries.
