Yesterday (25), Walmart.com began selling the Nexus 7 in Brazil. Today, half of the stock held by the tablet online retailer had already been purchased. The gadget produced from a partnership between Google and ASUS is selling for £ 999.
According to G1, which came into contact with Flávio Dias, president of Walmart.com site, it took a long negotiation might bring the model to brazilian lands – going against the announcement by the Mountain View giant last month that the device would not be released anytime soon here.
“Two weeks ago we got the hammer to buy the full batch of Nexus 7 from ASUS that was available in Brazil,” said Dias. The executive also said that the transaction was closed directly with the store.
“The Walmart.com is a separate company. Not long ago we opened a new company in Brazil only for e-commerce. We even have an office with more than 500 employees, “explained the head honcho of the network.
Flávio Dias said that the tablet market is in full swing in Brazil. For example, Walmart.com had a 400% increase in category sales in the first four months of this year compared to the same period of 2012. “The tablet is a product that has great grip for Brazilian consumers, besides the increase of available templates” mentioned.
About Nexus 7, the executive was full of praise and said that the current stock may not last long. “It is a product with great features, it has a very strong brand, beyond the expectation of Brazilian consumers have this product. Our expectation is that the rest of the supply runs out quickly, “he finished.
Due to the successful sales, it is quite possible that the online retailer try a new negotiation with the manufacturer to get a new batch. However, the company does not have any confirmation if it will be feasible. Click here to check out the offer from Walmart.com.
