Groupon Buys Social Shopping Platform Mertado To Bolster Groupon Goods

We’ve been hearing rumbles about Groupon taking its Groupon Goods initiative more seriously, and those rumbles have a little more weight today, as the company has acquired Mertado, the social shopping startup that uses Facebook as a distribution platform.
From the Mertado blog:
“Our mission at Mertado has always been to expose a selection of high quality, unique, lifestyle-oriented products to consumers wherever they spend their time. Working toward this goal, we have strived to create shopping experiences that build bridges between content, commerce & community.
