What is shopee?
Shopee is a tech-forward, consumer-focused eCommerce platform in
Southeast Asia that has grown in popularity in the Philippines, Singapore,
Malaysia, and elsewhere. It aims to give access to a vast array of products
and, much like eBay or Amazon in North America, allows both
individual sellers and established businesses to sell on their platform.
The company first launched in seven countries across the region,
including Singapore, Malaysia, Thailand, Taiwan, Indonesia, Vietnam,
and the Philippines. Now, it is also used in select countries in Latin
America and Europe and has a new presence in India..
Shopee originally began as a marketplace, offering consumer-to-
consumer (C2C) transactions. It has since transitioned to a hybrid
business model that caters to both C2C and business-to-consumer (B2C)
transactions.
Shopee partners with a number of different couriers to facilitate product
delivery. They call them “supported logistics partners” and offer tracking
in their app for shipments. Partners include NinjaVan, Pos Malaysia and
Pos Indonesia.
