ISLAMABAD – In another boost for small entrepreneurs, social media giant Facebook has rolled out its platform for online businesses in the South Asian country.
Pakistan’s e-commerce has seen rapid growth in recent times as earlier e-commerce company Amazon added Pakistan to its sellers' list.
In the meanwhile, Advisor to Prime Minister on Trade and Investment Abdul Razak Dawood also reacted to the development after Facebook introduced Market place that facilitates people to find and buy products online.
In a series of tweets, PM’s aide wrote: “I am happy to see that, after Amazon, Facebook has recently launched a marketplace for Pakistan. The launch will encourage small enterprises and entrepreneurs in Pakistan to sell online. Such opportunities during COVID-19 could be a lifeline for micro-enterprises.”
