United Arab Emirates-based e-commerce giant Souq.com has entered into a definitive agreement to buy Wing.ae, a marketplace for merchants and couriers, the company said today in a statement.

 

Having previously invested in Wing.ae, Souq.com – a subsidiary of US-based Amazon.com – will now acquire 100 percent of the company.

 

The move comes as part of Souq.com’s efforts to improve delivery for customers, said Souq.com CEO and co-founder Ronaldo Mouchawar.

 

Wing.ae will continue to invest in growing its same and next day delivery service across the region, the statement said.
