Jakarta, June 12, 2024 – Astro, Indonesia’s e-grocery shopping platform, officially unveiled its “ADA YANG BARU, ADA YANG BIRU” campaign today by launching a new identity and logo as a manifestation of its commitment to continuous growth and adaptation in meeting the dynamic needs of customers. Moreover, as #YourTrustedFriend, Astro also introduced its “Warranty Guarantee” service, which provides a replacement for defective items and a 100% refund of shipping costs if orders are delayed.
To launch the “ADA YANG BARU, ADA YANG BIRU” campaign, Astro organized a convoy of drivers to turn Jakarta blue, showcasing their new logo, uniforms, and identity. At the event, Vincent Tjendra, Co-founder & CEO of Astro, said, “This new blue identity reflects Astro’s modern, dynamic, and customer-centric approach, reinforcing our role as #YourTrustedFriend for customers. This campaign also strengthens our promise to provide safe and convenient shopping experiences through various innovations in services and products. By expanding Astro’s services, we aim to make it easier for customers to enjoy Astro’s offerings in more locations across Greater Jakarta.”
Indonesia’s e-commerce market is expected to exceed $53 billion by 2025, reflecting increasing consumer trust in online shopping and improved digital payment systems. Indonesia has become the world’s third-largest e-commerce market, after China and the United States due to rising per capita income, broader internet access, and urbanization. According to a report by L.E.K. Consulting, 96% of Indonesia’s population owns a mobile phone, with 76% having internet access. More than 65% of the population is under 44 years old, exhibiting relatively high impulsive shopping behavior. These demographic and shopping behavior trends show significant opportunities for expanding Indonesia’s e-grocery market, where penetration is projected to grow from 1% in 2020 to 3% in 2024.
Aside from fast delivery, a warranty program plays a critical role in building consumer trust in online transactions. A Nielsen report states that 72% of Indonesian consumers prefer e-commerce sites that offer guarantees for defective or counterfeit products, increasing their confidence in online transactions. By 2023, Indonesia’s e-grocery Gross Merchandise Value (GMV) reached $1 billion, with Astro capturing 5% of the market. Astro has consolidated its position as the only quick-commerce e-grocery player in Indonesia, giving it a 100% market share in e-grocery quick commerce.
Felix Aprilio Rahardjo, VP of Channel Operations, said, “Astro ensures fast delivery within minutes. We are committed to operational excellence and customer-focused services, guaranteeing a seamless shopping experience 24/7. This approach saves our customers time and energy, enabling them to focus on their daily routines. Our Warranty Guarantee is our commitment to building consumer trust in online transactions, ensuring Astro is your #TrustedFriend for safe and comfortable shopping.”
