In an increasingly interconnected global economy, cross-border e-commerce has become a vital channel for businesses seeking international expansion. However, navigating the complexities of global markets requires more than establishing an online presence, it demands a strategic approach and access to the right resources. Recognising this need, UOB FinLab and Amazon have collaborated to enhance the Digital E-Commerce and Innovation module on our community page.

It guides businesses through the necessary steps, from setting up a global storefront to customer service expectations. Furthermore, it highlights the numerous advantages of using Amazon’s infrastructure, including global reach, streamlined processes, and access to Amazon’s vast customer base. It also bridges knowledge gaps that can otherwise hold businesses back from realising their full potential in global markets.

“I realised how vital it is to integrate our online and offline presence to achieve sustainable growth. It inspired me to think bigger about how Edith Patisserie could connect with both local and global communities,” – Ethel Tan, Founder of Edith Patisserie.

After gaining valuable insights through Amazon Global Selling, Ethel took her first steps to onboard the platform. She is now set to begin her international journey in January 2025, with plans to expand to the United States and Vietnam, further strengthening the brand’s global presence.
