Can I apply for two stores when opening a Shopee store? Which site is better for opening a Shopee store?
1) Shopee’s current sites are: Taiwan, Singapore, Malaysia, Indonesia, Thailand, Philippines, and Vietnam. Vietnam is not yet open to sellers.
2) You can only open one store when you first join, either Malaysia or Taiwan. After uploading 200 products and starting to receive orders, you can open a second store.
3) A company can open multiple stores at the same site, or multiple stores at different sites. The more stores there are, the higher the threshold. For example, to open a third store, the average daily orders of the first two stores must be >5 for three consecutive months.
Which Shopee sites are easier to operate?
1) Indonesia and Thailand are the fastest growing sites, but the disadvantage is that they are small language countries, and the customer base is not good at English so direct communication is not possible and needs to be contacted through Shopee customer service; the products on the shelves also need the help of Shopee customer service to translate into Thai and Indonesian.
2) Taiwan's average order value is currently the highest. The disadvantage is that the competition is fierce, and most customers prefer to pay cash on delivery, which has certain risks. The advantage is that communication can be done directly in Chinese, without the need for English. Singapore is the most mature e-commerce market in Southeast Asia, with fast logistics and many people who can speak Chinese. The downside is that Shopee’s current share is not large.
3) The Malaysian site is also relatively mature, it is not difficult to place orders, and the user base is very good at English. Because it is the default preferred site, there are many Chinese sellers and the competition is fierce. As the second and third most populous countries in Southeast Asia, the Philippines and Vietnam also have good potential in the future.
There is no need to rush. Shopee stores are different from other cross-border e-commerce platforms. Shopee platform tends to be sophisticated rather than large in quantity.
