Shopee E-commerce Platform

Shopee is a leading global e-commerce platform that originated in Singapore. It was first launched in 2015 by the tech conglomerate Sea Limited, led by Forrest Li. Since its inception, Shopee has expanded rapidly across Southeast Asia and internationally, notably becoming a major player in the Brazilian market. Unlike physical products, Shopee exists as a digital ecosystem connecting buyers and sellers, though most transacted goods are manufactured across Asia and local markets like Brazil.

The platform is owned by Sea Limited, a publicly traded company on the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE). Sea Limited is a multi-national technology giant headquartered in Singapore that also operates Garena (gaming) and SeaMoney (financial services). Shopee has solidified its position as a dominant force in the mobile-first shopping experience through aggressive marketing and integrated logistics services.
