Lazada 11.11 goes bigger this year with stronger brand partnerships

The highly-anticipated 11.11 sale of the year continues to make waves as Lazada continues to redefine the total shopping experience in the Philippines. The country’s #1 eCommerce platform kicked-off its biggest one-day sale of the year, 11.11, with local event The World of Lazada, teasing the first-ever live interactive countdown concert show in the country. Lazada’s 11.11 Super Show will be broadcast on ABS-CBN and livestreamed on the Lazada app, on November 10. This will mark the first time the show is being telecast on a national network.

With more than PHP 11 Million vouchers and 11 Million product offerings and massive deals and discounts, in-the-know savvy shoppers can look forward to only the best from each of their favorite product categories such as ‘Women & Men’s Fashion,’ ‘Health & Beauty,’ ‘Sports & Outdoors,’ ‘Toys, Babies and Kids,’ ‘Home & Living,’ and ‘Electronics.’

Lazada’s 11.11 provides brands and sellers more ways to reach consumers through new formats and channels. New in-app game LazCity Wonderland enables consumers to build and explore a virtual city of LazMall brands with special brand vouchers. Moreover, in-app facial recognition game Moji-Go will make it even more fun to win exciting vouchers when you play during 11.11. Users just need to match facial expressions to win coins that can be converted to vouchers. In introducing new games, consumers are promised an engaging shopping experience where redeeming rewards are easier than ever to achieve.

“As the first eCommerce player to bring the shopping festival concept to Southeast Asia, we continue to break new ground and accelerate the region’s progress in eCommerce. We are proud to see that Lazada has made 11.11 one of the key industry growth drivers in Southeast Asia, changing the way people shop and the way sellers do business,” said Ray Alimurung, Philippines’ Chief Executive Officer. “Our Group has been experiencing 100 percent year-on-year order growth in the past four quarters, and with more than 50 million annual active consumers on our platform, I am sure this 11.11’s growth will be another record-breaker. It is already better and bolder – it may well be the biggest too!”

The World of Lazada brought to life the latest shopping innovations, together with products from the bestselling categories to create a truly immersive, seamless and entertaining shopping experience.

“Beyond just a shopping platform, Lazada aims to be a lifestyle destination. For us, that means having the best selection of brands and deals and creating the most engaging shopper experiences. For 11.11, we’re pioneering innovation even further with new interactive shoppertainment features and exciting games!” said Neil Trinidad, Chief Marketing Officer.

The event kicked off with a tech-infused interactive fashion show where models and KOLs strutted down the catwalk showcasing best-selling fashion brands from Lazada. Delighted audience members were able to use the Lazada Image Scan on select items as part of their purchasable #OOTD (Outfit-Of-The-Day) goal outfits and add to cart using the new image scan feature within the Lazada app. Participants were also able to take part in makeup GRWM (Get-Ready-With-ME) masterclass in which Lazada’s AR Technology – Magic Mirror – was featured. This is a brand partnership with L’Oréal.

Lazada also shared their latest innovation in shoppertainment with GUESS IT!, a 4-hour interactive livestream in-app gameshow that aired across six markets on November 4. The event set a new live streaming record for Southeast Asia, with more than 1.1 million views. In the Philippines alone.
