#xiaomi philippines offline store

Last week, Xiaomi Philippines has announced that Mi products will soon be available in retail stores. Xiaomi PH used to be exclusively sold by Lazada Philippines since last year. They've also tried doing a pop-up store sometime last year, giving them insights on offline buying habits of Filipinos. By shifting from pure online to offline (dealers, retailers), Xiaomi will need to increase the SRP of Mi products. Lots of customers though have been requesting that Xiaomi makes its products offline. Well, there's good news as Mi Philippines has announced that Mi products will soon be available through Xiaomi's official offline partner. There's a trade-off though as going offline means that Xiaomi will incur additional operational expenses which will force them to increase their prices. In addition, certain government regulations prevent them from having different prices for online and offline, and as a result, Xiaomi will just maintain offline prices across all selling channels.
