Loquo.com has been acquired by Ebay
It’s official. eBay has acquired loquo.com which will from now on be a part of Kijiji.
Kijiji is eBay’s online classifieds business which has been growing in the past two years. The acquisition of loquo.com is a natural step towards growing europe’s online classifieds market share.
Loquo.com is the result of great ideas and hard-work of Ubaldo Huerta and a lots of other good people. A few years ago Ubaldo and Lissette started loquo.com in Barcelona (which is now loquo’s biggest city). In order to grow the site Ubaldo built a great international group of people that have been helping him with growing loquo.com beyond Spain. Me and Pedro have been running Lisbon and Porto. Many other cities are available.
I wish all the best to Ubaldo and Lissette with all this new life developments. Hope to see you soon.
