Mar 18th, 2010 by admin
After the departure of CEO Gunnar Piening last December, his successor Ralph Werner has also left Swoopo at the beginning of February (after only 8 months). Frank Han from the US is now leading the company. Since the participation of August Capital in April of last year, there has been no end to the unrest at the company.

Swoopo, with its innovative business model, counts as one of the pioneers of extreme retailing and is the catalyst for the global Penny Auction Boom.
Most recently, Swoopo has had to tone down their business model and reimburse users their participation fees after buying a product.
