#Asia In Photos: Complete Lazada re-design coming in May

After the massive US$1 billion Alibaba acquisition, all eyes are on Lazada. Check out one of their first moves after the deal

Be it building a new product, entering a new market or launching a new vertical, it is always interesting to watch the initial moves a company makes after a major deal.

In mid-May, Lazada is set to make a publically visible maneuver after the seismic US$1billion Alibaba investment earlier this month. The company will undergo a complete website re-design.

“The philosophy embraced is to be quietly confident and we have achieved that by looking at what we have, inwardly, instead of at others. With this new home page, we are letting shoppers decide on their own exploration, browse at their own pace, search for products they love, and create their own experience,” said Michael Darrel Stallenberg, Regional Creative Director, Lazada Group in a statement.

Lazada said it analysed internal consumer behavior data to make the online shopping experience more effortless for the consumer.

The company hopes the change will reduce the click-rate, ideally draw shoppers to more useful information and reduce clutter. Lazada is also implementing a five-star rating system with a list of sellers, their location and the price for shipping.

But enough from us, without visuals, it is impossible to decide if a redesign a sexy upgrade or a clunky snafu. Check out the images below courtesy of Lazada and decide for yourself.
