"This by far exceeds our expectations," said Mr. P.C. Choi, Managing Director, LG Electronics, Gulf FZE. "Obviously our customers are excited by a dedicated regional e-commerce site that that will service their needs more effectively."
Registered users of www.lgegulf.com can browse through an on-line catalogue of award-winning digital white and brown goods and order their requirements from their local distributors who will then deliver the items.
"Initially, payment will be negotiated directly with the distributor, but we plan to implement secure on-line payment facilities soon," added Mr. Choi.
The site, developed in-house at LG's regional headquarters in Jebel Ali, will initially be available to customers in the UAE, Bahrain, Qatar and Oman.
Anyone who registers with lgegulf.com at the company's stand in Hall 3 at the Dubai World Trade Centre receives a free gift.
LG was recently the first company in the region to launch a 100 per cent on-line initiative to give its agents, sub dealers and authorised service centres real-time spares control from enquiry to delivery.
More than 40 years of research, development and innovation have steered LG Electronics into a world electronics and digital age industry leader.
With 60 subsidiaries in 34 countries and an international marketing network, the global digital leader last year, recorded a worldwide turnover of just under US $10 billion.
In the Middle East and Africa, LG Electronics is one of the leading suppliers of premium white and brown and multi-media products, including the market-leading range of totally flat Flatron computer monitors, CD-ROM drives and award-winning Flatron TVs.
