Afterwards, the Shopee chose Larissa Manoela for the Black Friday campaign, who sang and danced with more than 20 dancers the brand’s jingle, which has the rhythm of ‘Super Fantástico’, by Balão Mágico.

Another point that gives the company leadership is the fact that Shopee stands out for having a portfolio based on more accessible products, at a time of loss of purchasing power due to inflation, this made a lot of difference”.

For the selection of influencers, who are the main opinion leaders in the country, we follow based on the criteria of relevance of followers and content”, explained Bruno.
