Ian Ho, Regional Managing Director of Shopee said, “We are very pleased to see the strong performance of our first 4.4 Mega Shopping Day, as we bring users the excitement of our signature shopping events all year round. Shopee is constantly ahead of evolving consumer trends in the market, and the Midnight Mega Sale and Premium Brands Festival are a few of the many ways we innovate to meet the needs of our shoppers. We are grateful for the unwavering support by users, sellers, and brand partners at our first big shopping event of the year, and will continue to bring greater value to all shoppers while helping brands and sellers accelerate their growth on Shopee.”
