Shop New Zealand (www. shopnewzealand. co. nz) has expanded its languages with the addition of French and German. Customers can now shop using any of the six languages on offer -- English, Korean, Japanese, Chinese, French and German.
Shopping online is very popular in France and Germany and the Company’s Executive Chairman, Chris Berryman, says that offering these languages will enable Shop New Zealand to increase sales in these lucrative markets.
Shop New Zealand sells over 5000 New Zealand made products online and the perception of New Zealand in France and Germany is very good. Some products such as New Zealand Manuka honey and health products are highly sort after in these markets.
German and French speaking staff have been added in its Auckland, New Zealand office and in addition to translation they will assist with the processing of orders and customer communication in these languages. The business has full time staff covering all the available languages.
Shop New Zealand is a leading New Zealand Online Department Store currently owned by a private company. Recently there has been increased activity by major companies interested in acquiring a bigger share of the online business in New Zealand. Shop New Zealand is currently considering offers from several companies with a view to an eventual sale. Chris Berryman says that the company could benefit from being owned by a major company that has the resources to build on the solid base that has been established. He believes that a sale to the right party would be in the interests of both shareholders and staff.
