2023 has been the year of maturity for Mirakl. Not only did we significantly increase our annual recurring revenue, despite the intensifying market pressures faced by the tech ecosystem globally, we are also now financially self-sustaining. Most importantly, this growth demonstrates the real value that we create for the 450+ enterprises that power their eCommerce with Mirakl. While online sales are predicted to grow in 2024, the same goes for consumers’ expectations, and companies face even tougher competition to attract customers and convert sales. From payment to personalization, from advertising to dropshipping, from marketplaces to catalog integration, the Mirakl suite is able to address all of our customers’ needs to help them thrive in a digital world.

– Adrien Nussenbaum, co-Founder and co-CEO, Mirakl
