Olx Group cuts 800 jobs after shutting down OLX Autos in several regions

NEWS Source:- https://techcrunch.com/2023/06/20/olx...

Olx Group, the online marketplace and classifieds business arm of Prosus, has cut around 800 jobs globally. The job cuts are a result of the decision to exit the Olx Autos business, which has led to the closure of operations in some markets. The layoffs are not limited to a specific market or division.

Olx Group has explored potential buyers and investors for Olx Autos since announcing its decision in March. However, the company couldn't find potential buyers or investors in some markets, leading to the shutdown of operations in Argentina, Mexico, and Colombia. In other markets, it remains unclear what the future holds for the company.

The job cuts come after Olx Group confirmed plans in January to reduce its global workforce by 15% (1,500 jobs). The company's decision to exit the Olx Autos business comes despite significant revenue growth, with Olx Autos reaching a milestone of $1 billion in revenue during the first half of its 2022 financial year. However, the automotive business has not yet achieved profitability.
