The Fortia Group Locks in Multiple Mandates for Q1, 2022; Introduces Aggregator Corporate Financing Arm

Dublin, March 16, 2022 — The Fortia Group (“Fortia”), a global M&A firm focusing exclusively on ecommerce exits, announced today that it has secured several new mandates for exits in the ecommerce space. In addition, Fortia is expanding its services to include aggregator corporate financing, naming another key industry veteran to its advisory panel, and launching a “Learning Hub” on its website to resource ecommerce sellers exploring an exit.

It’s been a lucrative 2021 for ecommerce aggregators, raising $12.5 billion, creating at least 10 unicorns and a significant number of companies worth more than $100 million. These companies have started deploying much of that newly raised capital, positioning the next generation of ecommerce entrepreneurs for well-earned exits if they find the right buyers.

2022 Ecommerce Operations Technology Summit

“I received quite a few private offers prior to working with Fortia but felt that I would have been selling the business short if I hadn’t worked with professionals in the space,” said Andy Lam, founder of Upward Baby, who is currently working with the firm on his exit. “Being as this is my first exit, having the right team by my side every step of the way was a critical factor for me, and Fortia has done that and more.”

Fortia, with decades of M&A and ecommerce experience, works with ecommerce entrepreneurs to secure the best and most lucrative deals possible.

“We selected The Fortia Group to advise us on our ecommerce exit for three reasons: Their depth of M&A experience, their professional and granular approach to the exit process and their relationships with all the relevant buyers,” said Jani Viheruori, CEO Avanto Lifestyle,

The Fortia Group continues to grow, is on target to complete >30 exits by the end of 2022 and aims to become the premier investment bank for ecommerce.

As part of its best-in-class M&A process for ecommerce, Fortia has secured the ability to team up with a leading global investment bank to advise aggregators on corporate finance matters e.g., financing.

Fortia Co-founder and CEO Emmett Kilduff, a former investment banker with Morgan Stanley and Credit Suisse, will lead that initiative. Aggregators can contact him directly for more information.

To accommodate Fortia’s explosive growth, the firm recently welcomed industry veteran Richard Jalichandra as an ecommerce and M&A advisor. Jalichandra brings extensive ecommerce experience: He founded 101 Commerce, the first institutionally backed Amazon aggregator, and he has been involved in over $5 billion of financings for aggregators in the past 18 months. A long-time tech executive, he has also led 43 M&A transactions worth nearly $2 billion and raised over $300 million in debt and equity financing.

“In a very young industry, The Fortia Group has already earned a reputation for its deep expertise and ever-expanding list of lucrative exits,” said Jalichandra. “I’m excited to contribute to a team committed to delivering thoughtful, world-class advice to its clients.”

Fortia also rolled out its “Learning Hub” on its newly redesigned website to serve as a resource center for sellers who are exploring exits. Resources include webinars, articles, buyer-and-seller tips, and a complete 90-page Exit Guide for Amazon FBAs, which is free to download.
