"We have been aggressively ramping up our product teams (with mobile expertise) and have been constantly on the lookout for quality talent both in India and the Bay area. The Native5 team has built a hybrid development platform for mobile and we are keen to use their expertise to strengthen our mobile offerings," Myntra Chief Product & Technology Officer Shamik Sharma said.

Native5 is Myntra's second technology led acquisition.

In April 2013, Myntra acquired Fitiquette, a San Francisco based technology solution which is a one of a kind virtual fitting room.
