Agencies Snap Up Amazon and Walmart Specialists
Independent and networked agencies are pursuing small, retail-focused acquisitions to build scale and expertise in retail media as private equity and consolidation activity reshapes the market. Recent deals include Podean acquiring Walmart-specialist Cartbloom in May, The EVOQ Group buying Amazon specialist Red View Ventures in May, and Harvest Group purchasing Amazon-focused Cartograph in April. Podean CEO Travis Johnson told Adweek the Cartbloom purchase was the agency’s fourth acquisition this year and that it has two more deals planned. The article frames these transactions as part of a quiet wave of M&A among commerce agencies as larger shops have already been consolidated and retailers (e.g., Walmart, Target) increasingly control ad budgets and AI capabilities.
