You may not know this, but in fact, Singapore is one of the top countries when it comes to e-commerce.
In 2012, it was reported that there were more than 500 million e-commerce transactions in Singapore. This led to a total sales amount of about $2 billion, which is quite impressive for such a small country like Singapore.
Since 2011, e-commerce in Singapore has been on the rise, and this is something that all retailers in Singapore should take note of. Having an online shop is a necessity today, especially if you want to attract customers from all across the country and even the world. But if you do not know what to sell (or how to spell it), then perhaps, you should take a look at these most popular shop Lancome products in Singapore that have been bought through e-commerce.
1. Fashion and Accessories
There are so many choices when it comes to fashion and accessories in Singapore. In fact, there are so many local designers who specialize in fashion and accessories. But apart from locally designed handbags, belts, clothes, shoes, and other fashion accessories, there are also luxury goods from foreign brands that have been sold online.
In Singapore, there is a huge market for those who love to buy designer items at the same price as those who buy them in department stores. That is why designer bags tend to be one of the bestsellers when it comes to e-commerce in Singapore.
2. For the Home
Whether you are decorating your own home or someone else’s, it can be quite hard to choose what should go where. So if you want to make sure that the items that you buy online will look good in your home, then perhaps, find out more about what other people have bought for their homes in the past.
As a matter of fact, there are so many options today when it comes to products for your home. You can choose from trays and furniture items to bookshelves and other storage units. But if you spend time checking out what other Singaporeans have bought online, you will realize that most of them have been buying accessories for their homes, such as lamps, wall clocks, or even decorative jars. These products tend to be very popular among Singaporean households because they do not only add aesthetic value but also function well too.
3. Electronics and Home Appliances
Electronics and appliances are some of the things that people buy quite often, which is why Singapore has a huge market for electronics and home appliances today. However, do note that not just any electronics and appliances would sell in Singapore.
4. Food and Beverages
We can all agree that food is one of the most important things in our lives because without food we will not survive. Most people in Singapore also share this belief which is why it is no surprise that food and beverages are top sellers when we talk about e-commerce in Singapore.
5. Utilities
If you already have an electrical shop, then perhaps, setting up an online shop for such things as air conditioners or fans would be a good idea since people usually prefer buying these items online. However, if you do not have such things in your shop, then perhaps, try selling other home appliances that Singaporeans need on a daily basis.
In conclusion, you can see that there are many things that people shop for in Singapore. So if you want to attract more customers, perhaps, it is time for you to set up an e-commerce site too. But before you do so, make sure that the products that you sell will be of good quality, or else your business might end up failing or worse.
