Sears Holdings announced that its newly formed subsidiary, SHC Israel, Ltd., has acquired the assets of Delver.com, a social search engine company based in Israel, and has established a new technology development center in Herzliya. The initial staff of the development center will consist of the associates that were previously employed by Delver. Delver CEO Liad Agmon will join Sears Holdings as vice president, New Services.
The formation of the Israeli development center follows the recent announcement of ServiceLive.com, an online marketplace from Sears Holdings where homeowners and businesses can name their price for a wide variety of services, improvements and repairs. The site is designed to improve the experience of getting projects done around the home for both homeowners and service providers.
