According to the statistics of PX Mart, PX GO launched the delivery service at the beginning of last year, and the performance of “PXGo! PX Mart Online Shopping” has grown rapidly. This year, with the addition of Foodpanda, the market will be larger, which can attract supermarket customers who shop online. They are optimistic that the coverage rate and customer base will increase, and the business hours will be extended.
Interestingly, last year, the top 3 fresh food e-commerce sales in PZ Mart were kiwi fruit, green vegetables, and fresh milk that are available all year round; if we only look at fruit, the most popular ("AKB") are apples, kiwi fruit, and bananas, with grapes following closely.
