Cheil India launches e-Commerce Practice

Cheil India has recently launched e-Commerce Practice to meet to the industry’s growing demand for an online marketplace service. As part of Cheil Worldwide’s India focus, the e-commerce practice is a unique blend of internet, technology, business expertise and established best practices to provide a blueprint for the company’s e-commerce success.

Cheil e-Commerce’s approach centres on integrating digital marketplaces and e-commerce solutions into the brand’s overall marketing and business strategy. As a multidisciplinary unit, Cheil e-Commerce will span across e-commerce business consulting, design thinking and platform transformation, mobility and omni-channel solutions, performance marketing and big data analytics.

The venture is led by Varun Jha, a seasoned e-commerce and digital strategy specialist who possesses more than 10 years of experience and has worked in leadership roles across various start-ups and consumer commerce brands like Snapdeal and PayU.  He specialises in digital and e-com business strategy, online payments, product management and growth marketing. Based in Gurugram, he will lead a team of 10 people with vast experience in e-commerce and digital.

As an agency built for now, our differentiation comes from technology + creativity. In keeping with that thrust we are proud to be the first ever full service agency with e-commerce capability to drive digital transformation for our clients.”

Commenting on his role, Jha said, “With an online shopper base of 70mn, smartphone users of over 300 mn, and internet user base of 450 mn, India is well poised for the next phase of e-commerce growth that will happen over next four years. However there’s still a huge gap between the desired customer experience vis-à-vis what brand delivers. Also, with the buying funnel being so complex, it is very important for brands to understand the user journey and invest in technology solutions that can enrich their experience. India is ready to adopt the next wave of 100 mn online shoppers and hence it’s equally important to tap into new and existing users through a host of innovative e-commerce solutions. This calls for business to look for new digital channels, create new products, enhance the existing web offerings and create new systems at scale! Cheil e-Commerce has been created keeping these needs in mind. We are sure to add value to our clients.”
