LAZADA Eyes Rapid Growth

In just two years, Lazada has rapidly established itself as the number one e-commerce retailer in Southeast Asia. The Company has brought the convenience of Internet shopping to customers across Malaysia, Indonesia, Thailand, Vietnam and the Philippines. Lazada is owned by Germany-based start-up incubator Rocket Internet.

Lazada’s growth has been exponential, driven by its unique offering as an online shopping mall, which understands the differing needs of consumers across a diverse region. It has tapped into the growing trend for consumers in Southeast Asia to shop online, particularly in rural areas where there are few physical retail stores. To date, the company now receives over a million of visit to its website every day. From small number of employees, Lazada has now grown significantly across the five regions and is equpped with state-of-the-art distribution center in every market it operates. .

Lazada  has raised approximately $430 million from leading investors including JP Morgan, Kinnevik and Tesco, which has helped further fuel its growth.

According to Maximilian Bittner, the firm's chief executive officer, “Lazada is a destination website which meets the demands of customers across a complex region. We have successfully broken down the barriers to e-commerce in these markets through solutions such as owning our own fleet of delivery vehicles and offering cash on delivery.

“The Company has seen exponential growth over the past two years and we are now the leading online e-commerce business in Southeast Asia. I am proud to be leading a team of people who strive for perfection every day and work relentlessly to deliver incredible services to our customers”, he adds.

In the Philippines, Lazada (www.lazada.com.ph) is considered as one of the largest online shopping mall, which provides fast, convenient and secure online shopping experience combined with an extensive product offering in categories ranging from mobiles & tablets and consumer electronics to household goods, toys, fashion and sports equipment. It continuously strives to offer its customers the best possible shopping experience with multiple payment methods including cash on delivery, extensive warranty commitments and free returns.

Get 10% LIFETIME commissions

I’ve got to say - having my own online shop has been something I’ve always wanted to do… But I’ve only just recently managed to get my heart’s desires - and all in under 5 minutes! I built my store by choosing a few products I liked from a catalogue of over three million items, and every time someone buys something from ‘me’, I get a commission! All thanks to a fantastic service called Zlio - no technical knowledge required, of course, and you don’t even need to handle the products yourself (they’re shipped directly from the merchant to your ‘customer’). Why don’t you have a go?



To be honest, I also have a bit of a vested interest in letting you know - Zlio gives me 10% of the commissions of any member I refer (without your losing out, of course!)… But, if you then refer people yourself, the same applies to you!
