Liverpool FC today announced the launch of territory-specific online Club stores in five Asian territories, including Hong Kong, Japan, South Korea, Thailand and Vietnam.
EZ International, pioneers in the e-commerce football business, will operate the new sites, and have successfully run the Liverpool FC online store in China since 2012. As the result of the Chinese stores success, which has seen the Club’s e-commerce sales in the territory increase by over 200%, the Club is expanding its online retail presence to reach the new key territories across Asia.
Each online store will be in local language, products will be shipped locally with reduced postage rates and the stores will also feature tailored payment methods.
Featuring Warrior replica kit and training kit, as well as the full range of Liverpool FC branded fashion, accessories and souvenirs, fans across Asia will now be able to get hold of the latest LFC merchandise from their very-own tailored online store.
Mike Cox, Director of Merchandising at Liverpool FC commented, “The Club has worked with EZ International for a number of years, and their understanding of our requirements in the Asia Pacific region means that the new five online stores will I am sure be as successful as our China store.
Fans will be able to benefit from shopping in their local language, saving money on duty and postage costs, as well as tailored payment methods, which is a result of EZ International’s skill sets.”
