There’s definitely no stopping the popularity of online shopping in the Philippines today. From desktops to smartphones, Filipinos have embraced the convenience of ecommerce so much, that the industry is expected to reach a revenue of $4.69 billion by 2020. But this should come as no surprise.
Filipinos have long been early adopters of all things new or trending. In the world of social media for instance, Pinoys lead the world with the most time spent online, averaging 53 hours a week. This is in part due to the number of Filipinos with friends and family abroad. Aside from social media though, some of the other online activities that Pinoys actively engage in include entertainment, career/financial-related tasks, and learning.
But Filipinos can’t chat all day. So what do they do during idle times?
That’s an opportunity that many big online retailers want to take advantage of. And with more and more Filipinos getting their hands on smart devices – coupled with lower mobile data offers – it’s not astonishing that the next wave to hit the Philippines is online shopping.
