New Service Leverages Existing Team and Infrastructure
TORONTO, July 7, 2022 /CNW/ - EMERGE Commerce Ltd. (TSXV: ECOM) ("EMERGE" or the "Company"), a diversified acquirer and operator of niche e-commerce brands, today announced that its subsidiary, BattlBox, LLC ("BattlBox") has launched Wanlow (Wanlow.com), a monthly subscription box designed to get kids excited to spend more time outdoors and less time inside with their digital devices.
Wanlow is designed to inspire kids to spend more time outdoors playing and learning about nature. Each new box comes with products, activities, and a booklet with learning material and games. Members can expect various themes built around learning and spending time outdoors including Animals, Star Gazing, Gardening, Parks, Outdoor Crafts & Games, and many more!
"Since the inception of BattlBox, we have seen our customers taking elements of their BattlBox subscription and sharing it with their children in an effort to teach them about the great outdoors. With Wanlow, we are able to deliver a complete solution to fill this market need," commented John Roman, CEO, BattlBox Group.
"With the launch of Wanlow, BattlBox demonstrates their ability to cost-effectively spin out a new concept leveraging their existing infrastructure, team and members. We are also looking to cross-sell Wanlow to suitable demographics within the EMERGE member ecosystem. Needless to say, timing for an offering centered on encouraging children to enjoy the real world is much needed these days," commented Ghassan Halazon, Founder and CEO, EMERGE.
