A Chinese tech company that specializes in online selling with Rs. 272 billion annual turnover is all set to step into Pakistani ecommerce industry with-in next few weeks, we have been told by sources who are directly aware of the development.
While we are under embargo and aren’t allowed to reveal much, we can confirm you that commercial unveiling of this new ecommerce company is due with-in next one month.
According to information made available with us, the said Chinese company will hold cent percent shares of new company that has already been registered in Pakistan. They have setup its headquarter in Islamabad and team building process is almost complete while a warehouse in Karachi is nearing its final phases.
We were further told that this new Chinese company is aiming to open up Chinese market for Pakistani consumers, who are usually reluctant to order products from AliExpress — or if their orders take forever to deliver — will now be able to buy products from Chinese manufacturers from CheezMall.com.
CheezMall will allow Pakistani consumers to buy international brands from abroad and deliver them with cash-on-delivery option
CheezMall will work on Cash-on-Delivery model — even for international brands or the products that will be brought from China — along with various other payment channels including credit cards, easypaisa, mobicash, upaisa etc. to make sure that their products are accessible to everyone.
CheezMall.com — through its strategic logistic partners such as DHL, Singapore post, China Post — is aiming to ship products with-in 2-5 days with-in Pakistan for local brands. However, international products from international brands that are to be brought from China will take 10-12 days for shipment to end-users.
Seemingly CheezMall will host variety of local brands along with international brands — including sophisticated Chinese tech brands — to offer more variety and options to consumers.
CheezMall, exactly like its parent company in China, will deal directly with manufacturers to eventually offer lower-than-market rates to consumers.
Most importantly, CheezMall will act as vendor and will be responsible for all product related issues including after sale and support services. This means that customers won’t be given a excuse that a product was faulty because vendor was unable to supply product as advertised or other similar excuses that we hear from current ecommerce players.

Above story is a gimps of the potential that Pakistani market has to offer to investors, local or foreign. With over 180 million population — and internet population growing at triple digit rate — there are countless unexplored areas that are to be tapped in next few years. And right now is the best time to step in and invest in such lucrative Pakistani market.
Expect more details about CheezMall, brands that they will be offering, and information about the parent company during next couple of weeks.
Goood news.., although agar postman say bana k rakh lo.,., to AliExpress ka parcel bhe aajata hey..,
Yeah Postman hi tu aliexpress say parcel utha ker ap tak pohncata hye :S fool
mango man, ager postman say app ki theek nai tu GPO call you to pick it up.
no they dont.,, i have bought more than 40 items uptil now..,. and have lost 3 of them (didnt delivered by postman or never came to pakistan dont know)..,, but never received a call from post office about those items.
you can always track your order on pakistan post website
This is great.Will benefit a lot of people.
What kind of embargo is this where you reveal everything ?
What I revealed is less than 40% of the information I had. They want to do it in phases and that’s only how they agreed to share it.
Will they sell chinese smartphone brands?
Xiaomi one plus for example
well , no intention of bothering you , but at least give us a release date ?
im LITERALLY GONNA EXPLODE WITH EXCITMENT !
please gimme a date !
Mid September.
thanks … long wait for a fan like meee … but might be worth it
EMPHASIS on “might be”
lagta hy daraz waghera ka aakhri waqt qareeb aa gia hy :P
final nail in the coffin :p
More players should join like amazon or like filpkart
Flipkart is an Indian company, it would never get a NOC from either party.
Lol. Aam aa aur jaa sakte hain. Qubee Internet chal sakta hai, jo far more dangerous hai shopping se, kyunke internet personal data steal/read karr sakta hai. Pakistan main India se bananas, onion waghera aa sakte hain Britannia Industries, Tiger Biscuits, Dabur, Himalaya products.. hell, even Ponds aur Fair & Lovely ki indian made creams sell hoti hain.. seriously flipkart ne kisi ka kya bigarna hai.. Last but not the least, don’t forget ”The Raymond Shop” nuff said..
i dont want an indian company to work here.
oh come on , don’t we all ? but they offer insane prices there and i’d welcome that !
better to create our own or get half investments from chinese or others.
yeah …. well if we were that forward thinking , we’d be way ahead of the world…
Daraz and Flipcart k investors same hyn !!!
explain
No. Daraz’s investor is Rocket Internet Inc. Flipkart’s investors are Accel India and Tiger Global.
lol they can get registered from Dubai and can work in pakistan legally :D
They should bring chinese mobile phone brands like xiaomi and miezu… They have much better features than those already being sold in Pakistan.. And if they can bring those cell phones than i am the first one to buy from them..
Completely agree Xiaomi,One plus ,Meizue,Vivo and Letv smartphone
vivo is a brazilian brand I guess
Vivo from Brazil is a mobile phone service provider.
Whereas Chinese Vivo is a smartphone vendor.
oh ok thanks
you cant IMAGINGE the amount of Glee im filled with !
i’ll FINALLY be able to lose my smartphone virginity with a Chinese Smartphone , one which trumps all those over priced brands !
tell me one thing…all these weird and new Chinese brands I have come to know about here….do they have service centres in Pakistan?
I mean….if ur phone breaks….who repairs it?
i bet … if they are officially here , then service centres do the job BUT otherwise , its basically your good ole street shop electricians …
but this so called Tech Giant entering the scene … claims it’ll handle all warranty , repairs etc
so looking forward to this…
oh ok thanks
Great newss…. i hope they dont work like daraz and kaymu. I hate buying from Kaymu they supply 3rd quality products..
I also hope this new company will spur these crappy establishments to up their game.
Totally agree on Kaymu. You may get what you ordered for but majority of the ppl are getting fake products. I myself is victim of Kaymu. Complaints are piling up day by day. One of Kaymu BDM who resigned recently shared this with me when I contact him to help me out for a refund. BTW, 99% chance is that you will not get a refund. I didn’t get mine.
For those who are asking whether they would be selling chinese phone brands like Xiaomi and OnePlus, here is the official response

Its alibaba i guess
yeh cheez
Excellent news! Although Aliexpress and few others are also good options to purchase Chinese products in economical but it takes almost 40 days to reach.
I think this tells the story. Alibaba owns the domain. Welcome Alibaba to Pakistan!
its looks like picture is edited
Nope, IT IS ALIBABA behind the game in actual sense lol just checked myself ;-)
Peechay chalis chor bhi aa jayen gey.
Chali Chor to kabi yahan se gay hi nahi
I think pechey hain hi chalis chor.
genius ho
yeah u right
There is only one way to find out. Go and see for yourself given your laziness hasn’t taken over.
If Alibaba is behind then this is gr8 news
No , alibaba not behind this company i think , because email is just for registrar not Registrant. read full whois
So Alibaba is a domain registrar too?
Alibaba is not a domain registrar. The email is for people who want to report abuse on the site, if there is any and is required.
They aren’t a domain registrar.
Why would I want people to report abuse if I’m not behind the website. *Think*
That sure doesn’t make sense.
yeah u r right
the official response says Cheezmall is not owned by Alibaba, have a look

I am literally jumping with happiness. Take my money already!
I hope it is alibaba. Life would be so easier.
wats so cool about alibaba ?
please educate a layman :)
The one who asks does not need to know.
whats that supposed to mean :/ (arrogant much?)
i asked in a friendly way ….
so still not telling me :/
Hahaha!
Alright, heard of Ebay? I hope you have or I’ll strangle you in a friendly way.
Consider Alibaba another Ebay. And now cheezmall would be a Pakistani Alibaba.
I used the word consider. They aren’t exactly the same. Since a layman wanted to know I believe that’s the best I can do.
hel YES , i have heard of Ebay !! wat do u think , im a heathen :p ?
well , you aren’t the kindest propk frequenter … but thanks
great news this , now i hope the prices are sane … (or insanely low!)
i shouldnt have mentioned the word layman , u completely mistook it :p !
Well, it’s too late now.
meh
Its just an email.
It doesnt prove that Alibaba is behind all this.
LOL the “registrar” is AliBaba but the “registrant” is not
WOW if this comes in, i’m definitely gonna buy my next laptop through this site.
lol , way ahead of ya , im thinking of an Electric Two Seater Car :D
Long Live Pakistan China Friendship
Welcome to Pakistan
i’ve also heard some exciting news about this site but thanks to propakistan for confirming the arrival . waiting for the launch :)
Pro Pakistani Team please do research first before posting any article …
This is Fake news and no Chinese website is coming to Pakistan …
Brother you will get your answer by end of September dont worry :P. BTW news is confirmed, Thanks ATTA for sharing. You always break the news first :)
Hello, cheezmall facebook page k admin logon ko ullu bnana band kro.
Feeling Excited…..
Bilkul sirf apko hi excitement ho rai hai bcz ap hi cheezmall k employ hain.
‘ve also heard some exciting news about this site but thanks to propakistan for confirming the arrival . waiting for the launch :)
xiaomi aye ga ya nahe?
yes with accessories
dr sahib confirm bateiye ..
Damn confirmed
its by “AliExpress”
Most importantly, in ki products par custom pare ga k nahi ?
i think we’ll be paying some kinda adjustment for that … watch out for slightly increased prices …
We should strive to make and buy PAKISTANI products.
first make quality product THEN talk about it…
Many Pakistani products, although priced a little high, are of superior quality as compared to the Chinese ones. I don’t say we should not welcome such companies. My point is that we should also manufacture products in Pakistan and encourage local industry here.
Can you please tell me which phone do you use?
I don’t want to engage in any personal debate. Please see my comment above.
LOL NVM
Cheezmall is not backed by Alibaba
they will sell Xiaomi which is good
this is great news for pakistani like me who like to buy from ali express even did some orders but eventually when a local vendor will do it will cost low and warranty claims such issue will help out .. looking forward for more developments on this project.
aliexpress.com is already there :)
OMG ! will i be able to buy chinese phones ?!
P.s : what about chinese electric vehicles ? I’d LOVE THOSE too , a cheap clone of a smart for two or Renault Twizzy is MOST welcome !
Let’s hope it’s Alibaba. Cheez is testing their website at http://54.169.99.99. Of course no product catalog as yet but you can get the feel. Scroll down at the bottom. See the payment option. First is AliPay which is Alibaba’s payment solution. Though they sell AliPay services to other business but why would such giant & direct AliExpress competitors will use AliPay? Beats me. Now open the AliExpress, scroll down and compare Cheez whole payment banner with AliExpress. I am sure you will not find any difference!
Agreed, it is not only the footer which matches, Cheezmall is using the same prototype for their website which is used by AliExpress, for the frontend at least. Items are categorized in very similar manner on both sites. What I am not able to digest is that Cheezmall’s management is denying any relation with Alibaba group, if they are true, why are they using the prototype of AliExpress for their site?
i CANT open the address… how is the site ?
I hope this embargo don’t held forever like Electric Rikshaw Article, where #Propakistani was under similar tight lips embargo and false hopes to reveal further details soon.!!!
Hello !
Lifafa website please stop fooling people.
Its not a tech giant.
I probably know more than you people about this website.
CEO name is Zeb Khan.
https://cn.linkedin.com/pub/zeb-khan/1a/130/578
If Zeb Khan is CEO of Cheezmall, how does it prove that Cheezmall does not belong to a tech giant or it is not a tech giant itself?
why don’t you just wait till mid September,save the eagerness ;)
Which Tech Giant, can you please tell us for the sake of our poor knowledge ???
As far as i know CEO is Zeb Khan who was just playing cricket in Leopards cricket league some years ago at shinghai.
Studied textile engineering.
Tried his luck in textile sector hhapparel.com.
How come suddenly he became so called “TECH GIANT” ???
You just wait and watch, this lifafa is going to blow your GLASSES you are wearing!!
Oh really, Just Wait & Watch !!!
BTW Apki bongi pe DFM.
(dur fitey mon) :D
Lol jis Zeb khan ki tum baat kray ho na wo Italian brand chalata hai. Addidas reebok and walmart mae supply chain ka head tha aaajse 10 sal pehly. I guess apnay detail se ni peehi linkedin and his other profiles :P. News is confirmed now fingera crossed yaeeeeeeeee !!!
IMPORTANT (MUST READ)
So, People ! Jis company ka Marketing Executive jhoot bol raha ho to baki ap khud soch lain k kya haal hoga us company.
I’m serious Haider Qazi cheezmall company k so called marketing executive hain. Aur qazi hi cheezmall facebook page ka admin bhi hain.Isn’t it Qazi sahb ??? ap baki awaam ko ullu bna saktey hain mujhe nai.
Aur Lagta hai qazi sahb apko sahi tarha se parhna nai ata.Sirf adidas k planning manager reh chukey hain Zeb khan na k supply chain head.Aur yeh unki linkedin profile mein b mention hai.Check experience section of profile.
Lets suppose that u r not lying, then how come head of supply chain becomes a “Tech Giant” all of a sudden !!!
BTW meri ap logon se koi dushmni nai hai.Lakin sach jan’na logon ka haq hai.Agr ap waqai mein logon ko sahi maanon mein Amazon aur flipkart jaisi services de sktey hain to i’ll be more than happy to buy from u.
THE MOST IMPORTANT QUESTION:
Will this tech giant sell smartphones on the official price or will we still have to pay taxes and custom duties on its products?
For example, OnePlus One is officially of 320 dollars which is approximately 32000 PKR but federal taxes and custom duties makes the final price of the imported phone around 51000 PKR.
kya ye CheezMall hamain official rates par sets baiche gi ya taxes k sath ?
I have asked them on the page.. no reply yet :(
yeah this matter’s
They should sell on offical prize if not then it’s no use whether it is Alibaba or someone else
true
its alibaba i guess
This is great news. Specially the cash-on-delivery.
This is awesome !
I am super excited and waiting desperately :D
LinkedIn profile you shared is now deleted.
No its still there.
Profile still accessible from my side.
Please SELL cars too !
will there be Free shipping ???
I work at a firm and we are engaged by them for accounting and related services.
are they reliable people ?
why google shows no result of cheezmall website?
any one know where i from buy xiaomi latest smartphones e.g REDMI NOTE 3?
They are fake…their support team first confirm your order by a long meeting with their so-called CEOs and director afterward they call you again and again, demand for sending amount in advance…and commit to ship your order after 15 days and “AMAZING THING” is that they apologies to ship your product hahahahhahaha bloody Online shopping store “cheezmall”, actually its not “cheezmall” its “FAZULmall” :P hahahaha
Great work. I hope that daraz and kaymu website. I hate buying from Kaymu they supply
bad quality products. I think our exp shopping website is lootlo.pk because
the produce is genuine & time on delivery…
