Our client

  • Glopal enables brands to grow sales from their own e-commerce sites while maintaining control of their customer data and image.

  • Founded in 2020, Glopal works with fast-growing brands known for their high standards of quality and customer service, such as Dior, Balmain, Loewe, and Babolat. The company has already facilitated more than four hundred million dollars in cross-border transactions for both American (50%) and European customers.
  • The company is positioning itself as a transformational player in the e-commerce market, where global retail sales are expected to account for 27% in 2026, according to Morgan Stanley (up from 22% in 2022). Cross-border sales are growing on average twice as fast as domestic sales. Glopal can notably rely on strong technical and commercial partnerships with recognized players such as Google, Meta or Paypal, allowing it to meet the specific needs of each client as well as those of end consumers.

Deal Rationale

  • This round of financing aims to support Glopal’s growth and deployment in Europe and the United States, regions in which the company is already present, through the recruitment of new talent.
  • The company also aims to continue to invest heavily in its technology to strengthen its competitive edge. The company has developed a fully integrated, plug & play e-commerce software solution that enables it to manage and grow sales for its 250 customers in over 100 countries with immediate and measurable ROI.
