“Rocket Internet’s 2011 entry to SEA sets the e-commerce wave in motion, accelerating our growth since the company’s establishment in 2014,” said Alvin Teo, chief partnerships officer, Ninja Van Group. “Being there right from the start allows us a front-row seat to the e-commerce evolution in SEA. We’ve seen how SMEs adapted to the meandering flow of e-commerce, including the navigation of a pandemic, and we’ve always been by their side to take the hassle out of their parcels."

As of August, 2022, TikTok Shop has been introducing local-to-local e-commerce solutions in six SEA countries: Malaysia, Indonesia, Thailand, Vietnam, the Philippines, and Singapore. According to research by McKinsey, when delivery times are too long, almost half of omnichannel consumers will shop elsewhere. As for how long is too long, more than 90% of US online shoppers expect free two- to three-day shipping.
