Shopcade raises £2.5m to support mobile growth

 

Shopcade, a fashion and deals hungry community which hosts over 16,000 retailers and over 150,000 brands, has announced a new round of private funding to further grow its mobile presence. The round includes new European investors Pascal Cagni – known for his highly successful management of Apple’s European business from 2000 to 2012 – and Michel Combes – the current CEO of telecommunications company Alcatel-Lucent and ex-CEO of Vodafone Europe. Launched in November 2011 by Nathalie Gaveau, Marie-Barbe Girard, Hoon Kim, and Evan Adelman; Shopcade.com is a one stop shopping app where shoppers can discover new trends, channel their favourite celebrity looks and see what’s making the daily hot list. Shopcade also saves shoppers money by alerting them when products they want have an offer available.
