Singapore recently hosted a presentation of a new E-Commerce Service. Globby E-Commerce Platform is designed to support small business development in Southeast Asia.
QNET International welcomes the development of electronic commerce in Asia, as the company’s management believes that the development of the e-commerce market is crucial for future growth.
QNET is constantly improving its own products as well as delivery methods to the end user.
The greater number of companies that create an opportunity to promote their products through eCommerce, the greater the number of people in the world get to choose for themselves exactly the way they’d like to purchase goods.
This type of trade is beneficial as the producer has an opportunity to reduce the budgetary output costs and and the consumer has the opportunity to reduce costs pertaining to the acquisition of goods.
