Online health and beauty marketplace Wahanda has secured a partnership agreement with deal website lastminute.com UK to manage the portal's spa category.
From June 2012, Wahanda will operate a new bespoke, lastminute.com-branded spa platform including full search and filter capabilities, as well as expanded inventory and exclusive deals on spa days, breaks and pampering.
The platform will also provide Wahanda suppliers with a single integrated offering to seamlessly promote their business on both Wahanda and lastminute.com.
Wahanda CEO Lopo Champalimaud, said: "This is a hugely exciting development for our business that will make us the largest health and beauty marketplace in the world.
"Lastminute.com is one of the UK's leading internet brands and together we can give our merchants and suppliers access to the biggest audience of health and beauty consumers anywhere.
"This means we can deliver even greater volume of customers for our suppliers with no additional workload on their part, as it will be managed across the same technical platform. These are exciting times ahead."
Lastminute.com president and CEO Matthew Crummack added: "Spa is one of the most popular products within our diverse lifestyle category, attracting millions of customers each year. Through this partnership, we will significantly expand our spa product portfolio and make our search and filter capabilities even more efficient.
"With Wahanda providing a bespoke lastminute.com-branded spa platform, we'll have the product breadth, knowledge and expertise to provide possibly the most comprehensive and compelling spa propositions on the market today."
