11.11 did not start as a shopping day; it first started as a day to celebrate single-hood. Known as Singles’ Day, the practice of celebrating single-hood on the 11th of November was started by a group of male students at Nanjing University in 1993, which later was caught on by the public as well. The reason why they chose the 11th of November was that 11.11 represents four singles.
11.11 became a mega sale day on top of Singles’ Day when e-commerce companies in China decided to turn it into a highlight campaign day. The celebration started extending to Southeast Asia and Malaysia later, and it has become the shopping spree extravaganza we know today. Every year, millions of items are sold and delivered on 11.11 Singles’ Day all around Asia.

Across Asia, Lazada is one of the most popular sites to buy basically almost anything! The site has expanded throughout the years, and their inventory list is just getting more diverse. As a matter of fact, when looking for something, we often go to Lazada first before checking out other sources. Lazada is also an active participant in international sale events, including Lazada 11.11 Sale. We particularly love their daily flash deals leading to the main big sale event. Flash deals are often done per category, including groceries!

When it comes to shopping interface and experience, nothing still beats Zalora for us. The entire shopping site is just so neat, and they always have fresh inventories. They may not have as extensive options as Lazada, but Zalora is a sure site for quality and specific goods that you are looking for. Throughout the years, Zalora has also built great partnerships with new Malaysian brands, as evident from last year’s 11.11 sale.
Hermo
Malaysia’s leading online shop for all beauty and skincare needs is also a massive hit during 11.11 Sale. Hermo is widely known to be a one-stop-shop for all the leading beauty and skincare products, both local and international brands. They have made beauty shopping so much easier throughout the years, and we cannot wait until the next 11.11 season to hoard on our favorites products.
