Rocket
Internet, a world-renowned creator of e-commerce websites, is finally here in
the Philippines in the form of Lazada, the current Best Online Shopping Mall
award recipient of the Golden Globe Annual Awards. Lazada is an online mall
that accommodates orders from all over the country. But don’t assume that just
because it’s owned by a German company that its products are not solid in
Philippine Peso because its one of its greatest features that Filipinos have
grown fond of. In fact, that’s not the only thing that has captivated the
hearts of many online shoppers. It also has distinct products made to fit the
interests and tastes of Filipinos.
Lazada
can be found in other neighboring countries like Indonesia, Vietnam, Malaysia
and Thailand each also having versions that sell their respective country’s
currencies to avoid conflict in rates and values. It gets even more impressive
because apparently its popularity has reached financial investors in other
countries. Its appeal has convinced investors like Summit Partners, Kinnovik,
J. P. Morgan Asset Management, Holtzbrink Ventures, etc to take part in the
growth of the said online venture. The funding was reportedly able to secure
more than $100,000,000 giving the online shopping mall more room to work with
and improve that has become very apparent in the services and product
selections it has recently been releasing.
Its
management is a mix of professionals from Rocket Internet’s different ventures
worldwide as well as recruits from the Philippines who have successfully made
the said online shopping mall the successful venture that it is now. Besides
being awarded as the Best Online Shopping Mall, it was also given recognition
by Facebook as the most talked about consumer brand early this year around the
same time it celebrated its first year anniversary.
Lazada
consists of different features and services that have made it the ultimate
go-to shopping mall online for many online shopaholics. Its services include
nationwide shopping that delivers products for free for a minimum purchase of
P1, 000 provided by LBC and 2GO, Daily Open Hotline available even during
holidays, payment methods that accommodate both cash and credit card payments, Return
Policy that allows product exchange or refund for up to 2 weeks from day of
delivery and many more.
For
very many aspiring entrepreneurs, it is important to have an effective venue
for the products. Because it’s very rare that well-made items are sold out if
consumers can’t even find its selling location. With Lazada,
entrepreneurs/companies both already known and are just starting out can be
given maximum exposure.
Online
shopping has become very effective and efficient. The E-commerce industry
earned over P8 billion from last year alone. For Filipinos who are always on
the run and don’t have the time to do a quick stopover for personal errands,
shopping from one’s mobile phone, tablet or laptop saves a lot of valuable time
from being wasted. Try out Lazada’s official mobile application available
exclusively in all Android phones. This way, you can finally do some last
