Hyderabad: Shopsy, hyper value platform, celebrates two years of delivering value across tier-2 and tier-3 regions and surpassing a milestone of 200 million Shopsy app downloads. To celebrate the platform's second anniversary, Shopsy’s second edition of the Mega Anniversary Sale went live recently on the platform.

Value-seeking customers drove demand for Shopsy over the past two years, with over 60 per cent hailing from tier-3 markets.
