WearYouWant claims to be the trusted digital partner of companies
WEARYOUWANT, a Thai online fashion and beauty marketplace, says it is becoming a trusted digital partner for industry brand names and distributors, creating a solid online presence in the booming Internet industry.
Working with large international brands and distributors as well as smaller and more localised businesses, WearYouWant says it offers a customised e-commerce platform with a strong focus on targeted visibility of merchants’ products.
“Brands want to go digital, and need to, but may lack the know-how, time and resources to be hands-on and do so effectively,” said Julien Chalte, co-founder and chief executive of WearYouWant.
“WearYouWant personalises the experience, creating and servicing every aspect of a merchant’s outlet, from the graphic design of marketing materials to uploading pack-shot images.
“When I look at our monthly pay-outs to our merchants, it is great to see that we are indeed delivering growth to both the smaller independent designer with only one storefront and the big international brands at the same proportional scale.
“The secret for us has been to keep the dual focus of B2B [business-to-business] and B2C [business-to-consumer] and grow the two at the same pace. That has made us and our big and small merchants successful.”
Minor International, a major distributors of brands such GAP, Esprit, Bossini and Red Earth, says it values its partnership with WearYouWant.
“Digital development is rising so fast in Thailand that it is important for us to incorporate the strongest digital sales channels,” said James Richard Amatavivadhana, CEO of Minor International.
“The future of retail is changing, but the core principles of trust, confidence and transparency still reign, especially when it comes to e-commerce. WearYouWant has empowered us to grow digitally and has enabled us to create a flagship online outlet allowing widespread visibility to our brands and products as well as an assurance to consumers that the products they shop are genuine.”
Sam Naghi, owner and managing director of Sam’s Sports shop, is another merchant on WearYouWant’s platform, selling mainly sport shoes.
“Partnering with WearYouWant has made a huge difference for us. We have a whole new revenue stream and a digital storefront where both our products and brand gets noticed by customers we would have been unable to reach ourselves,” he said.
WearYouWant recently received Best E-Commerce Website Awards from the Commerce Ministry’s Department of Business Development in two categories: Best E-Commerce Management and Most Trusted E-Commerce Website.
The awards were presented during the Thailand e-Commerce Day held at “E-Biz Expo” at Queen Sirikit National Convention Centre in Bangkok.
WearYouWant forecasts 120-per-cent growth in turnover in the first half of 2016 compared with the first half of 2015.
