Singapore, Singapore, November 03, 2014 --(PR.com)-- Shopping habits for the Singapore July - October

The face of shopping in South East Asia (SEA) is changing in front of our eyes. With more and more people turning to online retailers, the sector is continuing to grow at an astonishing pace. People spend so much of their time online - sending emails, checking social media, paying bills - that it makes total sense to turn to the internet for their shopping too. It’s quicker, simpler and more people than ever are trying it out and sticking to it. According to the Centre of Retail Research, recent statistics tell us that for 2014, the sector will have grown by 14.5% in the U.S. for example.

To give an insight into the world of online shopping for Singapore and surrounding SEA countries, PricePanda has collected data from the past three months on the trends of visitors to the PricePanda site. Who would have known the Samsung Galaxy Y Hello Kitty smartphone would take centre stage in Indonesia for example, or that shoppers are getting their refrigerators and washing machines online?

PricePanda has created a comprehensive profile on what shoppers are searching for the most, the surprise items ranking top of the visits in their categories, as well as data on the most used devices for online browsing and buying.
