First-ever Shopee Brands Summit highlights how the e-commerce giant drives brand growth, boasts connection with vast Filipino customer base, seamless platform features, and irresistible deals for upcoming sale
As the Philippines continues to embrace the digital shopping
revolution, e-commerce giant Shopee is leading the way for brands to expand
their reach and achieve sustained growth. Supported by Shopee Mall’s innovative
platform features, Shopee ensures a seamless shopping experience that
strengthens brand connections and fosters customer loyalty.
Celebrating Shopee Mall’s
Growth and Expansion
At its inaugural Shopee Brands Summit, the e-commerce platform
announced the growth in orders on Shopee Mall, its premium retail space
reserved for brand owners and authorized distributors, by more than 20%
compared to the past year Shopee Mall offers a dedicated platform where online
shoppers can discover authentic, high-quality brand products, easily identified
through a distinct label on the shop’s profile page and product listings.
Since its launch in 2017, Shopee Mall has expanded its roster of brands
to include popular favorites like L’Oreal, PUMA, Nintendo, and Italian make-up
brand KIKO Milano. By working with brands to offer users exciting product
launches and exclusive deals over the upcoming 10.10 Brands Festival, Shopee
Mall is poised to continue being the go-to brand e-tailer for Filipino
shoppers.
Building Trust and Driving
Brand Growth
With millions of users visiting the platform and carting out daily, Vincent Lee, Head of Shopee Philippines,
emphasized Shopee Mall’s role in opening up a wealth of opportunities for brand
growth and sustained success in the digital era.
“Shopee Mall aims to help brands to build lasting relationships with
our users by providing a dynamic and trusted platform where both can thrive. We
believe in empowering brands to elevate their presence and deliver exceptional
shopping experiences,” Lee said.
Recognizing that trust forms the core of strong brand and buyer
relationships, Shopee has made strides in enhancing its customer journey,
adapting to the evolving needs of Filipinos, and strengthening trust in online
purchases. For instance, product authenticity is the most important attribute
in an online mall for 77% of upper to
middle income Shopee users in the Philippines. Reaffirming its dedication to
authenticity, Shopee requires brands under Shopee Mall to undergo rigorous
verification and tripled its money-back guarantee to ensure every product sold
is 100% authentic.
Furthermore, Shopee Mall has an extended return and refund window to 15
days – double the platform's initial 7-day return and refund period – to
provide buyers added reassurance that their purchase will be satisfactory. With
a revamped Shopee Mall interface to improve product and brand discoverability,
along with the app’s signature seamless and secure checkout experience,
Shopee’s enhancements enable brands to broaden and deepen their connections
with buyers.
Bringing The Best Brands
Closer to Filipino Shoppers
Shopee's commitment to delivering an enjoyable
shopping experience has attracted a diverse user base and proven to be a
strategic platform for brands to expand their reach and drive sales. Successful
partnerships with PUMA and Nintendo demonstrate how Shopee's innovative
features and robust support have enabled these brands to thrive in the
competitive e-commerce landscape.
Upon partnering with Shopee, sports apparel
brand PUMA has significantly increased their brand visibility and broadened
their customer reach, enabling them to strategically position themselves
alongside other competitors in the market. Shopee Live has proven to be an
indispensable tool for the brand in engaging sports enthusiasts, driving
exponential sales growth for PUMA during each livestream.
“The key difference for us is the exceptional
support from the Shopee team,” remarked Javier Sabarre, Assistant Manager for E-Commerce Marketplace
at PUMA. “And we anticipate sustained growth over the coming years through our
continued partnership.” Sabarre highlighted that Shopee's operational support
has strengthened their customer-centric strategy, as demonstrated by the
remarkable fourfold growth in their business since entering the e-commerce
sector in 2022.
Gaming giant Nintendo opened its Philippines Official Store on Shopee
in November 2023, and continues to see rapid growth as one of the platform’s
top gaming brands. Their presence on Shopee Mall, and use of the platform’s
engagement features and promotion tools, drove excitement among the brand’s
fans, especially when coupled with attractive brand offers. Nintendo also
actively leveraged Shopee Live and Shopee Video to deepen their relationships
with the local gaming community and capture new audiences.
Building a Thriving
Community at Shopee
Innovative features like Shopee Video and Shopee Live are transforming
how brands build relationships with their buyers. These tools allow sellers to
showcase their products through engaging video content and real-time
interactive shopping experiences, allowing shoppers to get a better look at
product conditions and specifications to drive buyer confidence.
“Shopee strives to create an environment where users can shop with
confidence and ease,” remarked Lee. “With our extensive selection of well-loved
brands and innovative features, Shopee Mall has become a thriving hub
where brands can unlock growth potential
while ensuring secure, convenient, and enjoyable online shopping experiences
for all our users.”
