The funding will be used to boost marketing efforts and strengthen operation and customer service for WeShop Indonesia and other markets across South East Asia

Indonesia-based cross-border e-commerce portal WeShop has raised a seven-digit funding in a round led Vietnam’s NextTech Group of Technopreneurs and Malaysia-incorporated Haspro Holdings.

The fresh investment will be used to boost awareness of its cross-border e-commerce service as well as strengthen operation and customer service for WeShop Indonesia and other markets across South East Asia.

Both investors will have board seats while NextTech will join as chairman of the company.

WeShop claims its platform offers more than 200 million products sourced from world’s leading marketplaces like Amazon and eBay to Indonesian consumers using WeShop Indonesia. It also claims that listed products can go up to 70 per cent cheaper than those sold at local stores.

Additionally, WeShop Indonesia relies on WeShop Global’s logistics network to deliver goods across six South East Asian markets and USA. It also provides local customer service to Indonesian consumers.

“By offering cross-border shopping facilitation services to local buyers, weshop.co.id turns an oversea transaction into a local one so that every Indonesian consumer can now simply enjoy shopping anywhere in the world right from their home with total confidence and peace-of-mind,” said Emme Dao, WeShop Global’s Group Founder & CEO, in an official press statement.
