Several competitors are already in place in Philippine e-commerce, but occupying the top 3 slots with Shopee being number 2 are Lazada which is #1 and Zalora which is #3.
Lazada’s Brand Promise puts emphasis on Availability and Variety. This is showcased in their video commercial carrying the message #NasaLazadaYan, where they list diverse needs and wants of any individual, All You Want and All You Need #NasaLazadaYan. For this commercial, they engaged Filipino vlogger Mimiyuuh, a Youtube Content Creator who is also the owner of an unconventional and ragged clothing brand that aims to empower the customer with self-expression. Let’s watch the video.
