Lazada celebrates 5th birthday with huge sale on March 21 to 23

For five years, Lazada has been our go-to guy for one-stop shops, instant deliveries, last-minute gift shopping, and just general shopping crazes. In those five years, Lazada has accrued a plethora of milestones to celebrate its dominance in the Philippine e-commerce food chain. As they celebrate their fifth birthday, Lazada is throwing a huge sale for their customers.

Nowhere but up

For 2017, Lazada’s vision is to become a tech-drive company that empowers brands and sellers for the benefit of their customers. Balci cites five pillars which will enable Lazada to fulfill this: product assortment, brand/merchant empowerment, customer experience, seller/product transparency, and a lively ecosystem.

Besides being the fifth, this is a special birthday for Lazada. Global e-commerce mogul Alibaba acquired Lazada a few months earlier. While acquisitions are usually typified by hostile takeovers that signal the death of the acquired, Lazada co-founder Inanc Balci is quick to point out that Alibaba’s acquisition will allow Lazada to fulfill its vision.

Through Alibaba, Lazada will be able to increase their seller base, product variety, and ultimately, their customers. Even now, they have introduced two new categories to their wide range of products: pet goods and groceries.
