Express delivery giant talks about e-commerce success with top influencers in PH

With the continuous growth of the e-commerce sector in the Philippines, a strong online presence can ensure success for online entrepreneurs, says J&T Express, the number one express delivery company in Southeast Asia. 

J&T Express Philippines Chief Executive Office Dean Ding said that online entrepreneurs should take steps to make their brand even more visible online, especially with the constant growth of the number of Filipino internet users. 

Citing a Hootsuite and We Are Social report, Ding noted that the Philippines now has over 67 million netizens, based on the ‘Digital in 2018.’ A similar report released last January 2019 revealed that Filipinos spend an average of 10 hours and 2 minutes every day using the internet—the longest globally. They also spend an average of 5 hours and 4 minutes using social media.
