LONDON, May 2017Splento, a photography on-demand startup has acquired tourist photography company Fotourism.

For an undisclosed sum, Splento has purchased all of Fotourism’s assets, including their website. The deal has also seen Splento gaining access to Fotourism’s thousands of happy clients and over 1,000 registered professional photographers worldwide.  

Fotourism’s customers are invited to register for one of Splento’s recently launched business accounts for any future photography sessions, however, both companies have declared that no customer data will be transferred without the definitive consent of the Fotoruism customer.

Splento’s CEO Roman Grigorjev has commented: “We are happy to have closed this deal with Fotourism. It’s a great achievement for us to have acquired one of our competitors and especially seeing as they are also a well-recognised brand in the photography industry.”

London-headquartered Splento currently works with hundreds of professional photographers. Now that the asset purchase agreement has been closed, Splento invites Fotourism’s 1,000+ photographers to join them. The acquisition of Fotourism’s worldwide photographers has meant that Splento has been able to bring forward their plans for worldwide expansion. Splento now plans to expand to the rest of the U.K. by the end of the year, to Europe by Q2, 2018 and the U.S. thereafter.
