Follow on Google News | Online Retail in the Philippines Is Challenged by InfrastructureThe report “Philippines B2C E-Commerce Market 2015,” newly published by yStats.com finds that among the factors contributing to development of B2C E-Commerce in the Philippines are rising smartphone and Internet penetration.
Some major trends of the B2C E-Commerce market in the Philippines include mobile shopping, social commerce and cross-border shopping. A high double-digit share of online shoppers in the Philippines used mobile phones to make purchases online at the start of last year, more than in any other country in Southeast Asia, though M-Commerce was largely limited to the purchase of digital goods and services. Furthermore, the online audience in the Philippines is one of the most engaged in social networks by global standards, which makes social media an important platform for online merchants. The country’s major online retailer, Lazada.com.ph had over 10 million fans on its Facebook page in the Philippines, ranking second in popularity among all Facebook pages in the country. Other important players of the E-Commerce market in the Philippines included daily deals websites Cashcashpinoy.com and Ensogo.com.ph, each of which received substantial investment recently, online clothing retailer Zalora.com.ph and classifieds website Olx.ph. Popular foreign shopping websites include Amazon.com, Aliexpress.com and eBay.com. Press Contact: yStats.com GmbH & Co.
