Social Commerce Site Wanelo Picks Up Speed

Wanelo, the social shopping site that resembles a well-designed window display, is quickly gaining fans online, despite being largely under the mainstream radar. On Wednesday, the company revealed it had 6 million registered users through its website and application, 70 percent of them visiting the site at least once a month. In November 2012, the site had 1 million members. The service also said that it had a catalog of 5 million products, including items like printed tennis shoes and jeweled in-ear headphones, from 200,000 different online retailers and shops.
