How it happened
Facily was a Brazilian social-commerce platform that used group-buying to sell low-cost goods to lower-income consumers across Latin America, reaching an estimated ~$1B valuation in 2021. As venture funding dried up, the company faced mounting losses, layoffs, and supplier and logistics problems, and it ultimately collapsed and wound down operations.
