Walmart-owned Indian e-commerce retailer Flipkart has launched a new app-in-app fashion destination intended for Gen Z shoppers.
Named SPOYL, the new on-app interface offers more than 40,000 products, including western wear, accessories and footwear categories.
In addition to offering shopping experience, SPOYL will offer unisex product navigation for gender-agnostic style browsing, gender-neutral apparel, Korean-inspired designs and more.
Flipkart said that India’s Gen Z population size is higher than the global average.
Gen Z comprises more than 25% of Flipkart’s fashion customer base.
Flipkart Fashion vice-president Sandeep Karwa said: “Our mission with ‘SPOYL’ is to address the growing needs of Gen Z, who embrace their inner confidence and express their authentic selves through their style.
