(Reuters) – Canada’s Shopify (NYSE:) said on Thursday it would buy U.S.-based logistics firm Deliverr for $2.1 billion, to help mitigate supply chain snarls that have plagued the e-commerce sector.
Founded in 2017, Deliverr’s logistics network delivers more than a million orders per month for thousands of merchants across the United States, the company said.
Separately, the company reported a 22% jump in first-quarter revenue to $1.2 billion, compared with analysts’ average estimate of $1.24 billion, according to IBES data from Refinitiv.
