60% of Buyers Remain Steadfast in Achieving Ambitions and Enjoyment in E-Commerce
KUALA LUMPUR, 12 JANUARY 2023 – Shopee Malaysia officially unveils ‘Past the Starting Line: Adapting to Malaysia’s Digital Consumers in 2023’ Consumer Trends Report. Of 2,150 Malaysian buyers surveyed, 60% remain steadfast in achieving ambitions and enjoyment in e-commerce in 2023. In fact, buyers under categories such as Mobile & Accessories (61%), Automotive (60%), Fashion (59%), and Home & Living (59%) are becoming more tech-savvy and fully aware of their diverse needs in supporting local businesses for a future-forward economy.
Increased and savvier use of digital services
When asked what their New Year Resolutions are in 2023, 35% of Malaysians want to prioritise personal health and wellness this year. The degree to which they look to self-improve is spread: better lifestyle and living choices (26%), upskill and nurture hobbies (23%), and increase social confidence (16%). When thinking about discovering and buying items, 39% of buyers plan to buy more home and living products in 2023, 38% show interest in family essentials like household goods, 13% gain knowledge through books and games, and 10% equip themselves with workout and travel gear.
Because they are more digitally savvy and spending more time online in all parts of their consumer journey, 51% of buyers see the increased importance of greater personalization and shopping flexibility for the new year. In particular, 32% of Malaysians across all categories want to explore Shopee’s circle deals and live shopping, and 17% want to embrace mindful shopping by being sustainable in support of local inclusive businesses.
Growing adoption of digital services for rural communities
When Shopee asked the surveyed buyers about their interest in locally made goods from Borneo sellers, 5 in 10 buyers expressed interest in supporting local businesses in Borneo to improve their living standards. 35% consider shifting preferences to shop for more local goods, and the remainder carries on with their learned and adopted online shopping habits. Many are excited to support Made-in-Malaysia products from underserved communities in rural areas because of their high quality and durability. Sellers outside big cities can seek inspiration from Khairul Aming, local entrepreneur from Kelantan, who was awarded the Super Favourite MCO Entrepreneur at Shopee Super Awards 2022 for having remarkable growth through the support of loyal buyers.
“We continuously work with a user-centric approach to keep ourselves well-informed of the trends and buyer contexts to create a positive impact through our inclusive ecosystem. This helps us channel efforts and optimally address user needs to share the future of the digital economy. And thanks to all their efforts and blessings, Shopee ranks first in the YouGov Best Brand Ranking in Malaysia and won gold for Kantar’s Strongest Malaysian Brand in the ‘General Retailers’ and ‘Lifestyle App’ categories. We look forward to coming together, celebrating, and giving back to our local communities with greater hope so Malaysians can enjoy a joyful shopping experience,” said Kenneth Soh, Head of Marketing Campaigns at Shopee Malaysia.
The rise of younger, more purposeful buyers
With the rise of younger, more purposeful buyers, many will not compromise on principles. 7 in 10 Malaysians strive to make smarter purchasing decisions through insightful content such as product warranty, live demos, and unboxing to ensure the products they love are worth the value.Since buyers pay close attention to what a seller stands for and does, they can interact with Shopee’s diverse community of influencers and affiliates to discover and enjoy an authentic shopping experience.
Terence Pang, Chief Operations Officer at Shopee said, “We have seen in the past two years, how adoption of digital services like e-commerce can improve people’s lives and transform the way consumers and businesses connect. Despite many having come online, we’re only just past the starting line in Malaysia’s digital economy, with a greater long-term opportunity to help more people benefit. In the coming year, these digital consumers will continue to shape the future of the digital economy. Shopee is sharing key consumer trends we have observed that businesses need to adapt to, and those who do so, will lay the foundation for a resilient digital ecosystem that will enable them to reach more users in the future. We are committed to helping our partners understand these trends and unlock more opportunities.”
Buyers will continue to influence the future of the digital economy with higher expectations of their online interactions. 32% of buyers intend to spend more time in 2023 to de-stress and earn coins through Shopee Prizes. Over 29% choose to support local businesses and products via Shop Malaysia, 28% habitually find authentic and genuine goods at Shopee Mall, and the remainder follow trends and latest products sold on Shopee Live and donates to the underserved via ShopeeGivesBack.
‘Past the Starting Line: Adapting to Malaysia’s Digital Consumers in 2023’ Consumer Trends Report is part of Shopee’s thought leadership series. These data-driven insights allow online sellers and buyers to tap e-commerce and digital services to drive resilience and stay relevant. Further insights on Malaysian influencers will be shared in greater detail in the coming week.

Ever Clean is proud to support & donates cat litter to PAWS Animal Welfare Society’s (PAWS).
Petaling Jaya, 10 January 2023 – Ever Clean, the premium cat litter known for its maximum odor protection with the strongest clumping action, is proud to support PAWS Animal Welfare Society’s (PAWS) mission to find permanent homes for the street, abandoned and neglected animals. PAWS, a non-profit animal shelter that has been in operation since 1987 in Malaysia, helps animals in need through sheltering, vaccination, deworm, spay / neuter, adoption and education.
“Helping cats flourish in an environment of well-being has always been our brand purpose, so, we are thrilled to make a difference in the lives of these deserving cats through the donation of Ever Clean Lightly-Scented Multiple Cat.” said Monique Gonzales, SEA Marketing Lead of The Clorox Company.
Ever Clean super premium clumping cat litter.
It is made from a premium blend of pure, natural minerals and clays, which provide maximum clumping power that prevents liquid waste from reaching the bottom of the litter box where it can decompose and create odors. “Ever Clean offers easy clean-up. The little effort required for cleaning will give PAWS team more time to attend other urgent needs of the animals.” said Monique.
PAWS has been experiencing an increase in census.
“There are currently 263 cats in our shelter; 80 adult cats and 183 kittens, and the contribution from Ever Clean is estimated to last the shelter 2 to 3 months. Litter donation like this go a long way in helping us fulfil our mission of helping the most vulnerable animals and enriching the lives of pets and people. We appreciate Ever Clean for such generous contribution and we are encouraging more companies to also get involved and support us in any way they can. We believe that by working together we can make a real difference in the lives of these animals, and help to create a better future for them” said Edward Lim, Shelter Manager of PAWS.
PAWS is currently working on a fund raising campaign with the aim to build a new shelter and a quarantine station serving the Petaling Jaya City Council and Shah Alam City Council.
