QuikrServices eyes household services; acquires Zimmber

Online classifieds company Quikr has announced the acquisition of Zimmber, an on-demand household services provider, to further scale its hyperlocal household services business.

This strategic move will help the company accelerate its growth in household services and continue towards its goal of organising this fragmented category, Quikr said in a statement.
Through this partnership, Zimmber will benefit from synergies with QuikrServices and other Quikr verticals and also enter into newer markets.

“Household services is an exciting category which is seeing increasing adoption among urban consumers. The acquisition allows us to further scale our deep stack service capabilities and provide a superior service experience to Quikr users,” PD Sundar, Head of QuikrServices, said.
