We celebrate every birthday, but some are more special than others. Everyone remembers their milestones: their 18th, 21st, 30th, or for some of us, our 40th (and beyond) birthdays. This is a special one for us: today Kogan.com turns 18 years old and we’ve been celebrating all week. We’ve made it out of our teenage years into eCommerce ‘adulthood’!
We’re doing a lot of things to celebrate, including a huge sale to help our customers live their best lives.
We jump out of bed every morning to deliver remarkable value to you, our customers.
Back when Kogan.com was hatched in a run-down suburban Melbourne garage in 2006, barely anyone in Australia shopped online. They said we were crazy for believing eCommerce was the way of the future. We put our blinkers on, acted with conviction, and persevered. We built, and showed everyone how online shopping delivers convenience and great value.
Now, we can’t imagine our lives without online shopping. Even with the huge changes in the past 18 years, we’re just getting started, we’ve only scratched the surface of what’s possible. eCommerce penetration in Australia and New Zealand is just a fraction of what it is in more developed markets.
The most exciting thing is that we aren’t just riding the wave of this trend. We’re defining it:
- Creating, acquiring, and investing in new brands
- Delivering remarkable value in essential services like Kogan Mobile, Kogan Energy, Kogan Internet, Kogan Money, and more
- Expanding into New Zealand in a big way
- Expanding our Exclusive Brands and products
- Bringing you tens of millions of items through the Kogan Marketplace
- Launching an advertising platform to help Marketplace sellers reach more customers
- Creating a world-class loyalty program for our Kogan FIRST members
- & so much more
Our team’s mantra is “there is always a better way”. We have a long way to go, and this makes us very excited. Thank you all for your loyalty, it’s very humbling and we work hard to reward it with remarkable value.
