BEIJING, June 14 (TMTPOST) — Southeast Asian e-commerce giant Shopee will streamline its staff in ShopeeFood, ShopeePay, Shopee Mexico, Shopee Argentina, Shopee Chile and cross-border team supporting the company’s operation in Spain, according to a news report from DealStreetAsia.
The massive layoff, which Shopee described as “optimization”, mainly targets operations in specific markets and market segments.
"Given elevated uncertainty in the broader economy, we believe that it is prudent to make certain difficult but important adjustments to enhance our operational efficiency and focus our resources," an internal memo sent out by Shopee's group president Chris Feng said. “This is to ensure that, as a business, we remain in the best possible position to continue scaling sustainably and, ultimately, to win.”
