Tiki this month offers free delivery within two hours of essential products like consumer goods and food for orders of VND250,000 ($10.7) or more in Hanoi and Ho Chi Minh City.

The company plans set to spend VND39 billion ($1.67 million) on the campaign which it expects will bring around one million orders.

Buyers will get a maximum of three free-delivery orders a week.

A company spokesperson said the campaign was initiated after HCMC authorities urged businesses to lower delivery fees to limit travel by the public.

Sendo offers a VND50,000 ($2.1) discount on essential products between 6 a.m. and 8 a.m. every day. At other times there is a discount of VND30,000 ($1.27) on delivery charges on orders of at least VND99,000 ($4.2).

Singapore-based Shopee offers a VND30,000 delivery discount for orders over VND50,000.  

Vietnam’s e-commerce market is projected to grow to VND399.5 trillion ($17.3 billion) in 2023 from VND218.3 trillion ($9.4 billion) last year, according to U.K. consulting firm GlobalData.
