Welcome to Ginkgo
Ginkgo was born from a simple yet powerful idea: to help global brands seamlessly enter and scale in Southeast Asia’s booming e-commerce market. After years of working with leading consumer brands across Europe, the U.S., Japan, Hong Kong, SEA and APAC, founders, Harry & Pamela Lewis-Barclay, saw firsthand the immense potential of SEA—a region bursting with digital-savvy consumers and rapid online retail growth.
Yet, despite the opportunity, international brands often struggle with local nuances, fragmented marketplaces, and complex logistics. That’s why they set out to create Ginkgo—a consultancy built on deep market expertise, hands-on execution, and a commitment to making e-commerce expansion into SEA smarter, smoother, and more successful.
Why Southeast Asia is the Next Big E-Commerce Opportunity
With over 700 million people, Southeast Asia (SEA) is one of the fastest-growing e-commerce markets in the world. By 2025, the region's e-commerce market is expected to surpass $230 billion, making it the third-largest globally after China and the U.S.
For international brands, SEA presents a massive opportunity—but navigating its diverse cultures, regulations, and digital landscape can be complex. That’s where Ginkgo comes in.
