The unification of the two companies will support Cart.com’s vision of a one-stop solution for growing ecommerce brands under the banner of Ecommerce 2.0. Rather than outdated hub-and-spoke models, which place founders under enormous pressure to manage disjointed third-party services, such ecommerce 2.0 offerings will support and scale with brands as they grow, empowering sellers to realize their potential and thrive to maturity without sacrificing their independence.

“Cart.com and DuMont share the belief that the integration of data, marketing acumen, and technology are critical to enabling brands to scale intelligently. We’re committed to addressing the most complex problems high-growth companies face today with a fully integrated solution across the entire ecommerce value chain,” said Omair Tariq, CEO and co-founder of Cart.com. “DuMont’s experts have mastered the DTC ecommerce playbook, and we are thrilled to welcome this impressive group to our team.”

“I am extremely proud of the work and client growth our team at DuMont Project has achieved over the last decade,” said founder and President, Dawn Perdew.  “We’ve seen firsthand the pain ecommerce brands experience trying to cobble together solutions that allow them to scale. We are excited to join the team at Cart.com to provide brands with powerful technology and hands-on experienced growth marketing to solve scaling issues and realize sustainable growth.”  Perdew joins the C-Suite at Cart.com as its Chief Customer Officer.
