In addition, to promote consumption, lychee appeared for the first time on online sales platforms. Through the program “National online Vietnamese stall” on e-commerce website, organized by the Department of E-commerce and Digital Economy Agency, on May 19, Thanh Ha lychees were opened for sale right on the homepage with priority position on the Voso e-commerce platform.
Moreover, the stall for Thanh Ha lychee has officially been put into operation on Sendo since May 24 with many preferential policies: selling many varieties with prices at about 18,000 VND/kg with 1,000 free shipping codes. In collaboration with the ZaloPay payment application, customers now have more options to pay the bills. The representative of Sendo said that after just over 4 hours of opening for sale, more than 3 tons of lychee were ordered.
Except for Sendo and Voso, Thanh Ha lychee is also being sold on Lazada e-commerce platform. The number of orders on this site was more than expected. Total consumption volume reported was the highest among other online platforms which sell the same product.
