SAN ANTONIO – Feb. 1, 2023 – Athos Commerce, a global leader in site search, product merchandising, and ecommerce personalization, today announced several accomplishments from the last year. Driven by the goal of creating the ultimate shopper experience, Athos Commerce invested in its product, process, and team in 2022. The company’s strategic approach to growth paid off as Athos Commerce signed over 250 new customers and secured a strategic growth investment from PSG, a leading growth equity firm partnering with software and technology-enabled services companies to help accelerate their growth. These efforts received recognition from industry award programs worldwide.
Athos Commerce invested in great products and great people as its influence grew
Athos Commerce’s continued innovation across its diverse suite of solutions is enforcing the company’s position as the industry standard for ecommerce shopper experiences. In 2022, Athos Commerce announced several new solutions that enabled powerful benefits for ecommerce merchants, including:
- Athos Commerce Live Indexing – Empowers retailers to display product catalog updates automatically and in minutes
- Athos Commerce Personalized Search & Merchandising – Provides shoppers with custom search results and category page recommendations
- Athos Commerce Personalized Email Recommendations – Delivers tailored recommendations to shoppers through targeted email campaigns, in partnership with Klayivo, extending personalization beyond the ecommerce site
To maximize the reach and success of Athos Commerce’s product portfolio, the company expanded its leadership team to include three new executives: Suhas Gudihal, chief technology officer, Justin Jeske, senior vice president of global sales, and Doug Hooton, chief customer officer. These leaders bring decades of industry knowledge to Athos Commerce as the company continues to grow.
The retail industry responded favorably to Athos Commerce’s unique approach to customer experience
As a result of Athos Commerce’s investment in new solutions and new partnerships, the company signed over 250 new clients in 2022. In addition, Athos Commerce processed over 30 billion searches last year, a 100% increase in year-over-year search requests.
The new capabilities have already improved the ecommerce experiences for retailers like BHFO. According to Sofia Giussani, sr. director of digital marketing & ecommerce, BHFO, “When choosing Athos Commerce our priority was to get our customers to convert faster, at a better rate, and with a higher cart value. We needed the ability to accommodate powerful, high-intent searches with merchandising campaigns that supported our business goals. And when it comes to offering the ultimate shopper experience, Athos Commerce was, and still is, the best on the market.”
In addition to attracting new clientele, Athos Commerce secured a strategic growth investment from PSG in September 2022. PSG’s investment is expected to expand Athos Commerce’s strategic roadmap, accelerate product innovation, and position Athos Commerce for further go-to-market expansion in the U.S. and internationally.
