According to Soh, the coronavirus crisis had changed consumer purchasing habits as people were less willing to leave their homes and more likely to buy online. As a result, businesses needed to revamp their traditional retail strategies to be more digital-focused. Launching an ecommerce marketplace opens up a window of opportunity for SMEs to reach out to customers of the new normal through digital means.

“Brick and mortar establishments have borne the brunt of the economic turmoil brought about by the pandemic. This partnership with Fusionex is a timely one as the pandemic has caused consumers to shift to shopping online. This ecommerce platform allows us to give SMEs access to the surging online consumer base and offers customers a broader assortment of goods and services for them to purchase,” said Lee.

By utilizing the capabilities of digital technologies, entrepreneurs will be able to fast-track the digitization and automation of their retail landscape. In addition, the ecommerce marketplace platform, powered by Fusionex solutions, allows businesses to quickly respond to changes in supply and demand dynamics, create new sales avenues, and overcome Covid-19-related challenges as well as tackle other real world challenges.

“Our integrated and comprehensive platform enables FMM members to showcase their Malaysian-made offerings online through the ecommerce marketplace campaign program and in doing so, promote Malaysian manufactured products and services in line with FMM’s ‘Love Malaysia, Buy Made-in-Malaysia’ campaign,” said Fusionex Vice President Chen Keat Ming.
