CloudCommerce Comments on Recent E-Commerce Industry News

SANTA BARBARA, CA--(Marketwired - October 20, 2015) - CloudCommerce, Inc. (OTCQB: CLWD), a global provider of cloud-driven e-commerce and mobile commerce solutions, today commented on the recent reports of e-commerce initiatives by several industry leaders.

Walmart is among many retail industry giants who have reportedly invested heavily in recent e-commerce initiatives and its management has announced favorable results. Walmart CEO Doug McMillon said in a recent interview on CNBC's "Squawk Box" that the company's investments in e-commerce capabilities are starting to pay off. McMillon also indicated that Walmart intends to build a technology company within Walmart to address consumers' shift to e-commerce. Walmart has recently leveraged its network of retail locations and distribution centers to support the ongoing shift to e-commerce and mobile commerce customers. New fulfillment centers have been constructed and now 30 separate facilities process orders flowing from its website. Walmart has also expanded a program allowing customers to order products from mobile devices and then pick up the purchases in stores on the same day or the following day.

Meanwhile, Chinese e-commerce giant Alibaba is reportedly making sizable moves of its own, including an investment in India's leading online retail platform, Snapdeal. Indian e-commerce is reportedly growing rapidly, due to increased use of lower-cost smartphone and wider mobile Internet access across the emerging market. Snapdeal founder Kunal Bahl stated recently that Indian e-commerce could grow upwards to $250 billion within the next decade, which could outpace China.

Other sizeable e-commerce investments include the Indian unit of Amazon receiving a $5 billion investment from its US-based parent company and Flipkart receiving a $700 million investment.

"All of these recent e-commerce industry investments confirm that we are on the right track with our growth-by-acquisitions strategy," said CloudCommerce CEO Andrew Van Noy, "The biggest names in our industry are showing favorable returns on their investments and it seems likely that this could result in budgetary increases for on-going technical development partnership contracts with e-commerce solutions providers. These are the types of companies we aim to acquire."

CloudCommerce recently acquired such a company, closing a purchase agreement deal with Colorado-based digital commerce solutions provider, Indaba Group.

CloudCommerce also recently released its Three-Year Plan Describing Its Growth-by-Acquisition Strategy to aggressively expand its presence in the high-growth, cloud-based e-commerce and mobile commerce market.
