Moulton also adds a new but complementary capability to the Amware service suite: after-sale customer service. Moulton operates a large call center with trained customer service representatives that assume all the costly and time-consuming aspects of managing a call center, including live phone support, live chat, email, and Facebook and Twitter correspondence.
Drajpuch added, “The Moulton Logistics name is synonymous with direct response TV (DRTV) fulfillment for products sold via TV commercials and shop-at-home shows. Amware is excited to participate in this new channel, particularly at a time when more people are ordering online and in response to TV promotions.”
The acquisition was financed by Amware’s majority owner, Rotunda Capital Partners, which invests equity capital in family/founder-run firms within financial services, distribution, logistics and business services.
