Shopee,
the fastest-growing online shopping portal in Southeast Asia, has garnered a
new record on its recently concluded 12.12 Big Christmas Sale and it happens to
break its own record in the first wave of its biggest holiday shopping event of
the year. More than 12 million orders have already been purchased and delivered
from millions of users in different parts of the region throughout the entire
duration of the sale and that is surprisingly remarkable for Shopee's efforts.
Anyway,
throughout the occasion where it was supported by 45 million brands around the
world, Shopee's official website and mobile app have been visited 60 million
times in which users are looking to score great deals and discounts on their
own preferred choice of items. Meanwhile, millions have already enjoyed playing
Shopee Shake and Shopee Quiz on the mobile app during the sale where some are
fortunate to win Shopee Coins and a bevy of instant prizes. In the Philippines,
the most popular categories during the sale were Mobile and Gadgets, Fashion
and Beauty and Women's Apparel with Maybelline, The SM Store, Xiaomi and
Pampers as favorite brands among Filipino Shopeeholics.
The
Big Christmas Sale played an overwhelmingly intriguing role in the success of Shopee
in the Philippines for the year 2018. Through partnerships with trusted and
well-loved local and international brands, the online shopping site has staged
major events that complement the online shopping experience of its users and
even tapped local celebrities to take part in the likes of the Celebrity Bazaar
and special delivery deals. It has tapped the national sweetheart Anne Curtis
and the Father of Philippine Christmas Music, Jose Mari Chan, as its
ambassadors.
