Our take
The number of third party sellers on Amazon is estimated to be around 5 million and growing. Thrasio is a swiftly expanding roll-up business, buying up sellers in the Amazon FBA ecosystem and offering an earn out incentive to those who choose to sell their businesses.
After acquisition, Thrasio acts as a kind of steward to the brand, ushering it through a migration process using technology that inputs data and outputs strategy as well as utilising in-house brand managers, supply chain experts, and growth marketers. This results in lots of best seller tags and meaningful increases in sales revenue.
It's a fiercely competitive space, with many rivals like Perch in the US and early stage startup, Branded in Europe. However, Thrasio is forging ahead having raised over $3 billion so far to continue its rapid pace of buying up more third-party sellers, as well as securing Amazon veteran Georg Hesse as Vice-President UK, DE. It's a smart move as he will certainly bring valuable insights as the company pushes forward into Europe.
