YouPoundit Named ASEAN’s Best Retail Startup
Pasig City, Philippines (PRWEB) December 10, 2015 -- Ecommerce site YouPoundit.com was declared the Retail Startup of the Year at the recently-concluded Rice Bowl Startup Awards in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. The consumer electronics vendor bested peers from across Southeast Asia by combining quality online shopping experiences with hands-on customer care.
“This is a great honor not just for us but for the Philippine startup community as a whole,” said Kristian Salvo, founder and CEO of YouPoundit.com “The ASEAN startup scene has massive potential and we are thrilled to be in the company of all these rising businesses.” He was also quick to share the secret to their early success as he adds, “This also reinforces our plan of being a customer-centric business.
