Coupang has launched a special sales event for bedding items for the fall and winter, the company said Friday.
The leading e-commerce firm will offer about 1.2 million bedding items in 12 categories, such as blankets, mattresses, indoor bed tents, electric blankets and carpets.
The main page of the category will display a showroom as well as frequently purchased products including rugs, blackout curtains and bedside tables.
The store will also offer thermal mattress toppers and blankets for the fall when the temperature drops drastically.
“Coupang newly introduced the fall/winter bedding store as more of our customers are looking for trendy home decorations for the new season” said Helen Yoon, Coupang's senior director.
“Coupang will continue to recommend various home deco items to help customers style up their home for the upcoming seasons.”
