And it is an excitement to announce that we will extend the same-day delivery option to all of its markets across Southeast Asia.
We will grow bigger. We have brought a lot of well-known global brands such as Ray-Ban and Aldo to the region. We have CPS (Chaps) online from Jaspal Group as one of the key local fashion brand of the country.
Additionally, we are proud to have 12 famous Thai designers’ brands on Zalora (Thailand) to reinforce our positioning as Thailand’s Leading Fashion Destination and show our support to the local designers. We gave them the incredible opportunity to start selling their products on the website of Zalora Singapore and Hong-Kong.
Today, there are more than 6,000 brands on Zalora across Southeast Asia
including ZALORA Marketplace, the platform that allows many independent brands and boutique shops to sell their product to the huge customer base of Zalora. From the various brands and products, Zalora became the leader of Fashion Online Destination that connected the global brands to local consumers, and vice versa, bring global consumers to the local brands as well.
And now we are proud to announce that Zalora was going to be part of one of the world’s biggest online fashion groups, valued at about 2.7 billion euros and will reach out to 330 billion euros with a combined population of 2.5 billion people.
Zalora will play smarter to bring the seamless fashion shopping experience to customers.
With today’s high technology and ability to access to shop any time, from any place, across a range of channels and devices, Zalora recognized it then launched Zalora Application and joined hand with LINE application, launching Official LINE account in Thailand which reached close to 10M followers in less than 4 month and drive us to make it the biggest channel for ZALORA Thailand as today mobile is close to 60% of ZALORA traffic and LINE has been a key milestone to drive this expansion.
Zalora Thailand launched 2 sets of LINE Stickers to get closer to Thai customers
We invested more on mobile in order to bring convenience to them and allow them to shop anytime, anywhere even though they are on-the-go. And from this effort, in 2014 alone, Zalora garnered 200 million visits to its websites, with 38% of these visits coming from mobile phones.
Not only online that we invested but Zalora also launched The ZALORA Shop, the first Click-and-mortar shop in Asia that gave consumers a physical ZALORA experience through its pop-up stores in Singapore, Indonesia and Malaysia.
