Lazada and Tiki brought in VNĐ6.03 trillion and VBĐ997 billion, respectively.
Nguyễn Phương Lâm, head of the Market Research Department at YouNet ECI, said: "Shoppertainment (shopping combined with entertainment) remains the main driving force helping Việt Nam's e-commerce platforms maintain growth momentum towards 2025 with fashion and beauty products leading the trends. Meanwhile, tech products and home appliances are growing faster on TikTok Shop than on other platforms."
