Mr. Thanawat Malabuppha, Chief Executive Officer and Co-Founder of Priceza Company Limited, an operator of the country’s leading shopping search engine platform “Priceza”, said the ‘Priceza E-Commerce Trends’ event is hosted for the first time because it would like to enhance the knowledge for every level of shops and marketplaces and help them grow together. This event will be a medium that drives an e-commerce ecosystem in all aspects. The concept of the event is ‘The Infinity of E-Commerce Wars 2019’, which is meant to help all related parties to get ready for the infinite competition in 2019.

“The number of product items on our platform has increased from 28 million product items to 51 million product items this year. If you spend 5 seconds seeing each items on our platform, you need 8 years to see all of them. We also have a ton of partnership network from shops, marketplaces, product brands and e-payment channels. With all these information we have, we would like to share and help everyone grow together by using these information and knowledge to plan their business next year,” said Mr.Thanawat.

For the e-commerce business in 2019, there are four important trends that should put an eye on.

  1. All roads will head to e-commerce
  2. E-Marketplace will face more opportunities and challenges
  3. E-payment will achieve a leap growth
  4. Omnichannel will play more important role

Mr.Thanawat cited that the overall picture of e-commerce business in 2018 showed an interesting growth because some new marketplace players from overseas have launch their operation officially as well as more cross-border products have flown into Thailand. At the same time, those situations have caused a fiercer competition in e-commerce business this year.

For the e-commerce business in 2019, it believes there will be various positive factors such as the growth of FinTech and e-payment channels, promotion of players in the market, and consumers’ behaviour that shifts to do more online shopping.
