KUALA LUMPUR: Lazada Malaysia has overtaken Lazada Singapore to become the fastest-growing e-commerce platform for the past nine months in Southeast Asia.

Lazada Malaysia Chief Executive Officer, Hans-Peter Ressel, said Lazada Malaysia recorded over 100 per cent growth in sales for 2016.

"With the logistics facilities such as roads and trains, flights, as well as the existence of local and foreign courier companies, this shows that Malaysia's e-commerce market is well-developed," he told reporters after launching Lazada Malaysia's Fifth Birthday Campaign here today. -- BERNAMA
