Cart.com, a leading unified commerce solutions provider, has acquired OceanX, the wholly-owned fulfillment operations arm of Guthy-Renker. The acquisition further strengthens Cart.com's position as a leader in mid-market to enterprise logistics and expands its tech-enabled capabilities to support high-volume beauty, wellness, and lifestyle brands. Bill Guthy, Co-Founder and Co-Chairman of Guthy-Renker, will also serve as a strategic advisor to Cart.com as the company extends its multichannel selling and logistics offerings to new verticals and geographies.

As part of the transaction, approximately 200 OceanX employees will join the Cart.com team.
