Shopee parent company listed on New York Stock Exchange

Sea announced information relating to its IPO on the New York Stock Exchange

As the first internet business of scale from Greater Southeast Asia to become listed on the New York Stock Exchange, this is a significant milestone for Sea and its businesses, including Shopee.

“The listing day is a big day for Sea Group, including Shopee as well as Garena and AirPay. As we embark on this new journey, we are excited about the opportunities it will present for our business, employees, and most importantly, our customers,” said Chris Feng, CEO of Shopee.

“Our home market is an exciting region, with one of the largest millennial population in the world, and GDP growing over twice as fast as in the US. Internet and smartphone penetration is still low compared to the US and China, and we are confident in its continued growth and the tremendous potential this presents across our seven markets, namely Indonesia, Vietnam, Thailand, the Philippines, Taiwan, Malaysia, and Singapore,” Feng added.

Since Shopee’s inception in 2015, it has been working to empower local entrepreneurs and serve local consumers. For example, ShopeeVietnam’s nationwide free shipping service provides cost-savings to consumers, while the recently launched Shopee Mall, a premium online shopping portal, caters to the increasingly sophisticated demands of Vietnamese shoppers. Besides, the seller-driven initiatives, such as Shopee University, serve to help local entrepreneurs and businesses succeed in an increasingly competitive online shopping environment.

The combination of strong home-court advantage, a deep understanding of our markets, and its on-the-ground local presence has enabled the company to identify and cater to their needs—which is reflected in the success of attracting 1.6 million active seller partners, plus another 1,700 brands and larger retailers to its platform.

Shopee is the leading e-commerce platform in Southeast Asia and Taiwan. It is a platform tailored for the region, providing customers with an easy, secure, and fast online shopping experience through strong payment and logistics support.

Shopee aims to continually enhance its platform and become the region’s e-commerce destination of choice. It has a wide selection of product categories ranging from consumer electronics to home & living, health & beauty, baby & toys, fashion, and fitness equipment.

Shopee was first launched in Singapore in 2015, and has since expanded its reach to Malaysia, Thailand, Taiwan, Indonesia, Vietnam, and the Philippines.
