Unicommerce, an e-commerce focused supply chain SaaS (Software as a Service) technology platform, is aiming to double its transaction volumes as it faces rapid growth across Southeast Asia, including the Philippines.
From more than 2.5 million annual transactions currently, Unicommerce is targeting to double that volume to 5 million by this December. In its first year of operations, the company has signed up more than 30 clients across Singapore, Indonesia, Malaysia, and the Philippines.
Unicommerce said it is bullish on the growth of e-commerce in Southeast Asia. It has already established its local presence with a sales and customer service team in Singapore, Indonesia and the Philippines, and is also planning to set up a local entity in the coming months.
Unicommerce provides e-commerce enablement software for multichannel selling, inventory management, warehouse management, and omnichannel solutions. The solution is designed to meet the business needs of e-commerce and e-tailers across sectors.
The company also enables marketplaces to streamline processes with its multi-vendor management solution.
“Our clients in Southeast Asia are focused on building a strong digital presence and looking for technology solutions. Our platform enables them to enhance the post-purchase experience and achieve operational excellence,” says Kapil Makhija, chief executive of Unicommerce.
“Unicommerce’s robust and easy to integrate SaaS platform are well-suited to meet client needs, which is reflected in our rapid growth. We are delighted to partner with many leading brands and look forward to expanding our presence across Southeast Asia.”
Edamama, a leading e-commerce brand in the Philippines, is a customer. Edamama has deployed Unicommerce’s dropship fulfillment, vendor management solution, and personalized e-commerce solutions to manage different vendors and offer personalized shopping to consumers.
Automation by Unicommerce has allowed Edamama to manage operations across 400-plus registered vendors and 1,000-plus brands, while seamlessly maintaining over 30,000 live catalog counts and allowing the brand to dispatch tens of thousands of items per month with a 99.99% fulfillment rate.
Unicommerce’s expansion into Southeast Asia comes as e-commerce volumes spike and companies seek an integrated platform to handle the entire post-purchase transaction flow.
Being a sector- and size-agnostic platform, Unicommerce solutions have been deployed by a range of retail brands looking to build a robust online presence and re-engineer their operations and processes to achieve maximum consumer connection.
Besides Edamama, other leading brands that Unicommerce works with within the SEA region include Locad PayO Asia, Amilo, Business Engineers, and Luxurious Craving.
The company’s clients in the region include fashion brands, beauty, and personal care brands, fulfilment providers, and logistics service providers. The SaaS platform is also one of the finest omnichannel platforms that power more than 2,000 stores and 7,000 warehouses across India.
During the pandemic, online shopping surged as people wanted to avoid the spread of the virus. The popularity of e-commerce persists today as consumers have got used to the convenience of shopping online and having their purchases delivered to their homes.
As the e-commerce and retail industry grows with multiple online shopping platforms, the supply chain has become an increasingly complex process, and companies rely heavily on technology to optimize operations.
Unicommerce also built on its decade-long experience and leadership position in the diverse and dynamic Indian market, where the company processes 500 million transactions annually.
The company works with some of the leading brands and companies of India including Marico, Bestseller, House of Anita Dongre, Netmeds, Mamaearth, mCaffeine, and many more.
