Flying Tiger Copenhagen has previously tested live events primarily on TikTok for key retail seasons like Halloween, Christmas, Valentine’s Day and Easter.

These events reportedly helped build community and engagement, with high viewer time spent (+17 hours on average) and engagement rates (+596%). Approximately 32.5% of live event audiences were non-followers, demonstrating live video’s ability to reach new audiences.

By partnering with Sprii for live shopping, Flying Tiger Copenhagen can now connect these events directly to its ecommerce sales. Sprii’s platform integrates with Flying Tiger Copenhagen’s website allowing viewers to instantly shop the featured products.

Flying Tiger’s goal is to scale live shopping to additional markets and make it a regular part of the company’s digital marketing strategy.

The interactive nature of livestream shopping allows us to showcase our products in an engaging, entertaining way.”

Sprii CEO Christian Vester previously told Retail Insight Network that “In today’s fast-paced digital world, capturing and holding a customer’s attention is golden – and increasingly difficult. Live shopping is perfectly suited for this attention economy.”
