Rakuten receives an award for being the best e-commerce platform in Brazilian retail


SAO PAULO, June 30, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- Rakuten Digital Commerce has just received an award as the best e-commerce platform in the domestic retail market. The company won the BR Week Award, the most important recognition in the sector in the country, which was delivered Monday the 27th during Brazilian Retail Week, held by Grupo Padrao at Hotel Transamerica in Sao Paulo (SP).

The award evaluates more than 30 performance indicators at companies, analyzing factors such as profitability, strategy, and efficiency of IT structure, among others.

"To be chosen as the best e-commerce platform in the country makes us quite proud. Even more so because we know that for the evaluations the BR Week award analyzes whether the offer of services and products is adequate, and if the company has the capacity to understand the needs and expectations of retailers. That is precisely what we are always striving for," said Rene Abe, COO of Rakuten in Brazil.

Rakuten is on of the largest Internet services companies in the world, and in Brazil it provides e-commerce and marketplace platforms. From this platform the brand handles payments up to logistical management of the online store, providing personalized service at a much lower cost than the market average.



These are some of the reasons that the company ended up winning the award during Brazilian Retail Week, which seeks to contribute to the growth, strengthening and development of retail networks, as well as to ensure that providers and business partners offer systems that are increasingly adequate for retail.
