MercadoLibre(美客多)由马科斯·加珀林(Marcos Galperin)于1999年在阿根廷创立,当时全世界正处在“互联网泡沫”(dot com bubble)的市场环境之下。
MercadoLibre最初是一家拍卖网站,模仿了eBay的经营策略。随着时间的推移,MercadoLibre现在已经发展成为一个庞大的电商平台。在疫情期间,MercadoLibre一跃成为拉丁美洲最有价值的公司,市场估值超过590亿美元,力压世界第二大矿业公司巴西淡水河谷(Vale)。
MercadoLibre was founded by Marcos Galperin in Argentina in 1999, when the world was in the midst of the "dot com bubble" market.
MercadoLibre was originally an auction site that mimicked eBay's business strategy. Over time, MercadoLibre has now grown into a massive e-commerce platform. During the pandemic, MercadoLibre became the most valuable company in Latin America, with a market valuation of more than $59 billion, surpassing the world's second-largest mining company, Vale of Brazil.
