S.W, CYBEREMPORIUM: Cyber shoppers stocking up for millennium parties...
These News relate to Asia4Sale, a ZSUN subsidiary....
OCT 27, 1999, M2 Communications - LONDON -- Shoppers are flocking to
the internet in huge numbers to stock up for the last Christmas of this
millennium and the first New Year Eve party of the next.
Presents and drinks are being bought online well in advance so that
the months of December and January are kept free.
CyberEmporium Director Ross Clarke says that among the most popular
items being purchased are fitness and health products, electrical
goods, and European and New World wines.
"The signs are," says Clarke, "that Christmas and New Year this time
around are going to be one big party. Preparations have been in hand
for some time, and with just two months to go the shopping traffic is
speeding up."
CyberEmporium (http://cyberemporium.asia4sale.com) is a unique online
shopping mall where internet shoppers can buy top-range products direct
from Asian warehouses with greater cost savings and convenience.
Explains Clarke: "Our shoppers have the ability to order direct from
Asian manufacturers and have the goods, many of which are just not
available in the West, delivered to their homes.
The merchandise ranges from electronics and CDs to Chinese arts and
crafts and sporting goods, feng shui items and jewellery to gifts of
all sorts and beauty products. Prices range from GBP15 to GBP625 (US$25
to $1,000) and all items listed are genuine licensed products.
More than 50 companies are offering over 3,000 products, and more are
expected to come on line in the near future.
The secure online credit card payment system is operated by First
Ecom, a major online credit card system forerunner, in conjunction with
the Bank of Bermuda.
CyberEmporium works in a different way to other e-commerce with
shoppers placing their orders through CyberEmporium, direct with the
warehouse in Asia. Goods are then forwarded by courier service anywhere
in the world.
"E-commerce is growing at a phenonimal pace," says David Wallen,
Co-Director of CyberEmporium. "Shoppers worldwide are leaving the
shopping trolley in the supermarket and buying from the comfort of
their homes instead - and at lower prices."
CyberEmporium is a franchise of Asia4Sale, a wholly-owned Asian
subsidiary of ZiaSun Technologies Inc of the United States, and a
joint-marketing arrangement with Cable & Wireless HKT IMS, the largest
ISP in Hong Kong.
