There is a local
online shopping website that goes by the name lazada.com.ph/ this is the only internet retail store where I
first had a taste of real online shopping. It is among the first few online
shopping websites locally that uses the amazon.com style model of shopping. I
made a comparison between popular online shopping websites that has been doing
business locally for a long time now against how the Philippines online
shopping mall Lazada Ph operates and I found out the huge difference. The
difference can be seen in the way the more popular online shopping websites are
doing their business
Most of them are online market place platforms which
means that they provide a venue for individual sellers to sell their own
products as opposed to how Lazada Philippines operate where they are the sole owner
of the products and merchandise they are selling online. Despite the popularity
of online market place websites locally, Lazada still caught on, and it catches
on really fast and is now one of the most popular online shopping websites in
the country. A huge part of that wide acceptance is the convenience that they
bring. The company only started
operations more than a year and a half ago but its position in the local
e-commerce ranking is something that you would normally see being occupied by
more seasoned and long-time companies operating in the industry.
The company is
indeed an exception when it comes to the kind of success that it has achieved.
For a retail company doing their business purely online, it is rare to hit the
one million sales goals in just less than a year in the business. In my opinion
and I guess it is also what others have in mind that somehow that kind of
success that Lazada Philippines achieved is not very surprising. In fact it is
expected because of the background that Lazada has and the high level of
services and products that the company offers. In Lazada Philippines there is more than what
meets the eye, look closely and look around carefully at the very
well-organized online shopping categories and you will discover that this is
comparable to a huge department store. It is just that it is inside your
computer and you can take with you and shop anywhere you want and anytime you
want. Like what I have said, it has a
very wide array of product categories similar to what big box department stores
have in stock. They have your usual fare
like smart phones, beauty and skin care products, health supplements,
children’s clothing, toys, baby accessories, men’s shoes, women’s shoes, men’s
clothing and women’s clothing, small and big home appliances like refrigerators
and washing machines, games like PSP, PS3 and Xbox, tablets, computers,
laptops, books, sporting goods and a whole lot of other items that caters to
every type of shopper there is. In Lazada, there is never a shortage of choices.
It is literally shop till you drop here.
