Majority of women purchasing undergarments feel hesitation to choose the right fit, taking enough time in a physical shop. It is still a shy task for many girls and women.
Founder of Zimisa.com Sandhya Shrestha had been observing this for years and eventually came up with an idea of eCommerce, particularly for shopping lingerie.
“There has been a social stigma attached with buying underwear, bras, swimsuits and intimate apparel. Hence, online purchasing gives enough privacy, time and comfort to select the best option,” says Shrestha.
In a country like India and Nepal, where no one likes to talk about lingerie and buying undergarments is a confidential affair, online shops can give a facility to purchase privately. According to a report by The Economic Times, the privacy of internet shopping has drawn customers by the hordes to online lingerie retail sites.
Shrestha started selling lingerie for women around two years ago.
“The sales went up gradually, so we registered Zimisa.com as a registered eCommerce in 2020, during the Covid 19 lockdown,” shares Shrestha.
