ZipXの事業内容

We are a group of expats in Hong Kong that want easy and affordable access to buy the products we love from back home. Snacks, foods, health products, and other daily essentials that we miss are either not found in Hong Kong, or are too expensive to buy. We were faced with bad alternatives such as overpriced grocery stores, or expensive package forwarding companies. We believe that with the help of technology, anyone should be able to buy anything from around the world at an affordable price. We are on a mission to make international commerce seamless.

Company

ZipX

Describe what your company does in 50 characters or less.

Instantly order any product in Southeast Asia

What is your company going to make? Please describe your product and what it does or will do.

We built a platform that lets people in Southeast Asia instantly order products they miss from back home - snacks, health goods, and daily essentials. Customers avoid overpriced local stores and expensive package forwarding by buying directly through us, making international shopping affordable and simple.

Where do you live now, and where would the company be based after YC?

We live in New York City and Hong Kong. Post-YC, the company would be based in Hong Kong.

Explain your decision regarding location.

We live in NYC and HK because of our backgrounds as expats who face this exact problem. Hong Kong is the core market where the demand is highest and where we can directly operate and scale the business.

よくある質問

ZipXの実際のYCアプリケーションですか？

いいえ。Y Combinatorは提出されたアプリケーションを非公開にしています。これは再構築されたものです。実際のYCフォームの質問に、ZipXの公開データ（ローンチノート、創業者経歴、製品説明）から回答しています。ZipXのような会社がYCにどのようにアピールするかを示しており、彼らが提出したテキストではありません。
