Daraz’s “11.11” on cards
D a r a z — one of the b i g g e s t online marketplaces in Nepal—is bringing 11.11, known as the ‘world’s biggest sale day’, to Nepal for the first time. 11.11 is the numeric short form for November 11 and hence the date will see Daraz’s online portal featuring massive deals, flash sales, brand vouchers, mystery boxes, giveaways and much more. The one-day sale event on the new Daraz App will be the biggest to date for the e-commerce company.
Handicraft Trade Fair from Nov 14
