NEW YORK, May 31, 2023 /PRNewswire/ — Hilco Streambank announced it is seeking offers to acquire the intangible assets associated with bulk-quantity consumable products e-commerce retailer Boxed*com. The assets for sale include its domain name, customer data, trademarks including private label brand Prince & Spring, social media accounts, and related assets.
Bids are due on or before June 15, 2023 at 5:00 p.m. (ET), and an auction will be conducted on June 21, 2023. There is an opportunity to serve as a “stalking horse” bidder.
Founded in 2013, Boxed provided B2C and B2B customers with direct delivery of bulk pantry household and office essentials without the requirement of a membership or subscription fee. Gross Merchandise Value (“GMV”) totaled $189 million in 2022. In addition to the nationally recognized branded products, Boxed.com developed and cultivated its own unique, loyalty-building private label brand, “Prince & Spring”, which generated approximately $25 million in GMV.
Hilco Streambank Senior Vice President Richelle Kalnit commented, “Boxed resonates with both business-to-business (B2B) and business-to-consumer (B2C) customers, offering them the convenience of bulk household essentials delivered to their door, without a membership fee.” Kalnit continued, “This offering resonated so deeply with the customer that the brand recently expanded to offer a B2C premium subscription loyalty program, BoxedUp, garnering approximately 32,000 members and generating $21M in GMV in 2022. Coupled with its one-hour delivery service, Boxed Market, the company’s intangible assets position a buyer favorably for growth.”
