The More Choices the Better: Why Pakistan's E-Commerce Future Requires More Than One Player

The Monopoly Trap: When One Player Controls the Field

Pakistan's e-commerce market is a powerhouse, projected to reach $10.4 Billion by 2025. However, unlike mature markets where vibrant competition drives efficiency, the local landscape has long been dominated by a single entity.

While that single dominant player has certainly paved the way for online commerce, a online market controlled by a single online shopping website inevitably leads to stagnation, inflated costs, and poor service. This is the economic reality of a monopoly, when there is no competition, the rules are set by the platform, not the market.

For vendors and customers alike, the lack of viable options has become an increasing burden.

Why Vendors Should be Desperate for a New Multivendor Market Place

When a single multivendor market place controls the majority of sales, vendors lose their leverage, leading to direct financial pain.

1. Commission Inflation: Without competition, the primary platform has no incentive to keep its commission rates low. Vendors are forced to accept ever increasing fees, leading to constantly shrinking profit margins.

2. The COD Crisis Remains Unsolved: The dominant player has little reason to aggressively transition away from the high-risk, slow-pay Cash-on-Delivery (COD) model because they have no major rival offering a better alternative. The long wait times for capital and the cost of RTO (Return to Origin) losses are simply passed down to you.

3. Substandard Support: When you have nowhere else to sell online, the support you receive is often slow, generic, and unhelpful. Your urgent issues are low priority when the platform knows you can't easily leave.

The Solution? A True Alternative.
