Hong Kong Technology Venture Company Ltd. (1137.HK), operator of the HKTVmall online shopping platform, on Thursday reported its monthly gross merchandise volume (GMV) reached HK$827 million ($106 million) in May, up 27% month-over-month and 21.1% year-over-year. Its average daily GMV stood at HK$26.7 million, up 23% month-over-month and 21.4% year-over-year.

The company said that it ran a 15% discount campaign for a total of 10 days across multiple weekends and public holidays in May, helping to fuel the GMV growth. It added that April offered a lower base of comparison, as outbound travel over the Easter holiday that month weighed on local consumption.
