Zara Thailand is launching online sales in Thailand this month.
Vietnam will follow, with the service already introduced in Malaysia and Singapore this month.
Also this year, the brand will start selling online in India, where the Spanish fast-fashion chain is expected to reach sales of US$200 billion by 2025, according to a study by consulting firm Wazir Advisors.
Additionally, Zara parent Inditex has said it will open a 5000 sqm flagship Zara store in Mumbai, which will be the largest of its 21 outlets in India.
