Constructor Named 'Retail Company of the Year' in 2025 American Business Awards®

This marks the second year in a row that Constructor has earned a gold award in this program; judges praise its 'supersonic growth journey' and 'innovation'

SAN FRANCISCO, May 1, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Constructor, the leading AI-powered search and product discovery platform for enterprise ecommerce companies, is a winner in the 2025 American Business Awards®. Constructor earned gold — the highest-level honor — for "Retail Company of the Year" in the mid-sized company division, with judges calling Constructor "innovative," "groundbreaking," and "a game-changer in the ecommerce world."

The American Business Awards are the U.S.A.'s premier business awards program. All organizations operating in the U.S.A. — public and private, for-profit and nonprofit, large and small — are eligible to submit nominations. The program received more than 3,600 nominations this year.

Constructor was recognized for enabling product discovery — powered by factors beyond keyword relevance — and connecting shoppers to the products they actually want to buy: aligned with their individual affinities and in-the-moment intent. Retailers worldwide use Constructor to create personalized, revenue-generating experiences across search results, browse functionality, product recommendations, landing pages, AI Shopping Assistant results and more — including sponsored listings on retail websites and apps, through Constructor's recently announced Retail Media Suite.

This is the second year in a row Constructor has won gold in the American Business Awards. Its AI Shopping Assistant, a conversational product discovery tool, was the gold and People's Choice Stevie® Award winner for "New Product of the Year: Electronic Commerce Solution" in last year's program.

Constructor momentum
This win comes on the heels of other milestones and accolades for Constructor. The company was recently named to Fast Company's "World's Most Innovative Companies" list for retail — praised for "for pointing shoppers toward what they need" and "improv[ing] merchants' bottom lines" — and described in Forbes as "leading the charge in redefining ecommerce search and product discovery through advanced AI-driven personalization." Constructor also earned five gold Stevie Awards last year, across the American Business Awards and multiple other Stevie Awards programs.

In addition, Constructor is a current finalist in the Retail Systems Awards (for "Most Disruptive Retail Technology," "Ecommerce Solution of the Year," and "Ecommerce Technology Vendor of the Year") and K5 Commerce Awards ("Innovative Tech Tools" and "Search & Marketing" categories). Last year, the company nearly doubled revenue for the fourth consecutive year and powered more than 250 billion shopper interactions and queries — delivering 8,000 personalized experiences per second.

"We're grateful to be recognized again by the Stevie Awards. We know we can't rest on our laurels, and that we have to earn our customers' business every day through continuous innovation and finding more ways we can help them.
