The 9.9 sale is one of Southeast Asia’s largest shopping holidays, and it serves as the unofficial opening act for the region’s massive year-end sales.
Singapore-based Shopee is actually the pioneering e-commerce company to introduce the first 9.9 shopping festival with its Super Shopping Day back in 2016.
Staying true to its reputation as the pioneer, Shopee has consistently broken sales records during its 9.9 Super Shopping Day in the past years.
In 2020, Shopee witnessed strong sales growth despite Covid-19 with 700,000 items sold in a single minute at the peak of September 9. In these tough times, Shopee showed strong support to local businesses and made sure to promptly deliver necessities to its users.
This year, Shopee is pulling out all the works to make sure that the upcoming 9.9 sale is bigger and better than the last.
What to expect from Shopee’s 9.9 sale this year
From now until September 9, Shopee has lined up the best deals so shoppers can satisfy all their shopping needs, all in one place.
Shopee offers a wide assortment of products, from daily essentials to premium products. With millions of brands and sellers, as well as a wide network of online and offline partners, there’s bound to be something for everyone.
Shoppers can make use of the mega shopping season to stock up on daily essentials at Shopee Supermarket. There will be exclusive vouchers and discounts on groceries and household essentials on 9.9 Super Mart Deals, which will take place on September 9.
