Malaysian Tech Company, Alchemist Codes, Reversed Acquired on the London Stock Exchange

Alchemist Codes is a Malaysian company specialising in App and web development as well as tech consulting. However, you probably know or use the company’s most successful product, the e-commerce platform, OCTAPLUS. The growing, nascent e-commerce platform was first launched in 2019 and has since seen over 47% growth in user base in just the first quarter of 2020.

The company’s e-commerce platform joined the e-commerce industry at a time when the Malaysian e-commerce industry is experiencing a boom led by platforms such as Lazada, Shopee, PrestoMall (formerly known as 11street). That said, OCTAPLUS has the unique proposition of providing users with cashback incentives and providing retailers with an instant online retail promotions function. In addition, the platform provides users with discounts, reviews, price comparison data and detailed product information. OCTAPLUS also employs several big data, AI and analytics technologies to provide end users with a better online shopping experience.

AIQ Limited has recently reverse acquired Alchemist Codes on the London Stock Exchange despite the trying economic times amid the COVID-19 pandemic. With this acquisition, AIQ Limited is looking to up the ante with OCTAPLUS. AIQ Limited is looking to create a modern day, online “Silk Road” to bridge the eastern and western markets. It is looking to become the bridge between small and medium entreprises in Eurasian countries. The acquisition highlights the technical potential of Alchemist Code’s OCTAPLUS platform. Alchemist Code is looking to push OCTAPLUS as a global player in the e-commerce and online retail space with AIQ Limited’s backing.

AIQ Limited and Alchemist Codes are looking to the upcoming growth opportunities provided by the introduction of 5G technologies. With Malaysia looking to roll out commercial 5G by the third quarter of 2020, the company’s reverse acquisition puts them in a unique position to leverage these technologies. In fact, they see great potential in leveraging these technologies to help benefit e-commerce retailers and extend OCTAPLUS’s consumer and B2B offerings.

Perfect Valentine’s Gift? Why not Elizabeth Arden on Shopee?

February is here, Chinese New Year has gone, and Chap Go Mei just passed, and we look forward to the next big thing in our calendars; the 14th of February, Valentine’s Day. We first thought to go into a little bit of the history of Valentine’s Day. We then thought that that will be boring.

We also though of going through the history of cosmetics and then Elizabeth Arden as a brand. Then we also thought otherwise. We will have no clue what they are talking about. All we think you need to know is that cosmetics have existed for more than 1,000 years in the land of Egypt. Elizabeth Arden has also existed for about 110 years now.

If you know cosmetics, you would know that Elizabeth Arden is one of the more premium cosmetic brands in the market. If you do not know cosmetics; there is the information for you. They make a bunch of great stuff too, which we do not personally use; because none of us in the office uses cosmetics unfortunately.

Still, this makes an Elizabeth Arden product the perfect gift for Valentine’s Day. To be fair, this product is mostly made for women. You get the idea then.

The thing is, Chinese New year 2020 just passed and there are plenty of work to catch up on now. Time for shopping is very limited. So the only option for you to get a Valentine’s Day gift is via the online stores. Thank goodness for Elizabeth Arden on Shopee then.

You may not find the most complete Elizabeth Arden experience in the online stores. You will still find a complete catalogue of Elizabeth Arden’s complete product line-up and you can easily purchase them too. Thing is, if you have no idea what you are getting yourself into, you might want to get some advise from your friends who would have more experience with these stuff.

From the online store in Shopee you can get Elizabeth Arden’s award-winning Eight Hour product range. The products supposedly improve skin conditions after eight hours of application, some fast acting stuff here. There is their new 8 Daily Defense Moisturize product as well for a healthier skin.

Of course, there are other products in the Shopee store. If Elizabeth Arden is not your cup of tea, Shopee has many more items in store for you for Valentine’s Day. No significant other to give to? Who says Valentine’s Day needs to be just about your significant other? For more information and promotion, you can head to Shopee’s online marketplace. The Shopee app is also available for free on Google Play Store and Apple App Store.

UPDATE: For Valentine’s day Elizabeth will give 55% discounts on selected items at selected times too as part of Shopee’s Shocking Sale deals on the 12th of February 2020. That is tomorrow, yes. At 9 a.m. you can get a perfume, body lotion, and shower gel set at 55% off its MYR 378 price tag. At 4 p.m. you can get Elizabeth Arden’s White Tea two-piece set at MYR 116.55.
