Selling on the Lazada online marketplace

Selling on the Lazada online marketplace
Getting started on Lazada
Lazada is the leading online marketplace in South East Asia. It enables sellers from Europe and beyond to tap into large and growing markets such as Vietnam, Thailand, Singapore and Malaysia with low upfront costs.
Each country has its own online marketplace, but you only need one Lazada account to sell across all Lazada platforms.
Their cross-border operations are conducted from the Lazada fulfilment hub in Hong Kong. You don't necessarily need to set up a Hong Kong subsidiary, but having a partner to import and store bulk shipments in Hong Kong will be beneficial.
All returns can be handled by Lazada via the Hong Kong fulfilment hub.
The main advantage to selling on Lazada is the low seller fees.
