Southeast Asia’s transition from an offline to an online economy has outpaced earlier projections, with the number of digital commerce users in Southeast Asia expected to reach more than 400 million by 2025. The post-pandemic era is bringing about new patterns in the way consumers discover and buy products.
According to the report, 57% of Southeast Asian shoppers search for products directly from eCommerce marketplaces while 94% purchased the products they found from using the search function. In addition, 71% of shoppers purchased products as a result of Lazada’s ‘Recommendations’ function. These figures highlight search recommendations as a key enabler in aiding eCommerce shoppers to make purchase decisions.
Published in partnership with eCommerce enabler Synagie and media investment company GroupM, the report provides insights into the region’s eCommerce landscape, specifically in terms of key drivers throughout customers’ full shopping journeys, from product discovery to product delivery. The report covers five main content pillars, including the evolution of eCommerce, the product discovery disruption, the shopper journey from click to cart to checkout, the transformation of delivery and recommended actions to drive eCommerce business transformation.
