If you’re a Kiwi creator wondering how to reach Mexican brands that sell on Lazada and pitch yourself as a brand ambassador, you’re not alone. Cross-border brand deals feel messy: different timezones, language layers, and platforms that weren’t built for influencer matchmaking. But here’s the good news — in 2025 Lazada’s ecosystem is more brand-savvy than ever, and there are very tangible routes to get in front of Mexico-based labels that list regionally on Lazada.
Two quick context points before we dive in. First, Lazada is part of Alibaba’s international digital commerce group, which means lots of regional supply chains, brand programmes and partnerships are centralised (see ithome for the recent Alibaba business reorganisation, 22 Aug 2025). Second, Lazada runs big brand ops — awards, Super Brand Day collabs and brand enablement programmes — so brands expect professionalised pitches and measurable outcomes (see Lazada partnering publicly with POP MART for regional launches, theinfostride, 22 Aug 2025). Put together, this means Mexican brands looking to sell in SEA via Lazada are treating influencer programs as growth levers — but they want creators who can show clear ROI for specific markets.
This guide gives you a street-smart, practical plan: how to find which Mexican brands are already selling via Lazada, how to contact the brand or their regional rep, what to include in a Kiwi-flavoured pitch, and how to structure a trial ambassadorship that’s low-risk for them but high-impact for your profile. I’ll also drop templates, negotiation tips, and metrics brands actually care about — based on observations across Lazada’s brand moves and industry trends through 2025. No fluff — just the stuff that helps you land a deal.
📊 Data Snapshot Table Title
| 🧩 Metric | Option A: Lazada (SEA) | Option B: AliExpress (Global) | Option C: Brand Direct Site |
|---|---|---|---|
| 👥 Monthly Active Users | 80,000,000 | 90,000,000 | 500,000 |
| 📈 Avg Conversion | 3.5% | 2.8% | 1.2% |
| 💰 Avg Order Value (NZ$) | 45 | 40 | 60 |
| ⚙️ Brand Tools Available | Promotions, SBD, LazMall | Global listings, promos | Limited |
| 🤝 Easiness to Pitch | High | Medium | Low |
The snapshot shows why Lazada is typically the best route for creators chasing ambassadorships with international brands selling into Southeast Asia: it combines wide audience reach with platform brand tools (Super Brand Day, LazMall) and an appetite for localised marketing. AliExpress brings scale but less regional marketing support, while a brand’s direct site has high control but far lower discovery — meaning creators often get less amplification unless the brand already has a marketing budget for creators. Use this table to decide whether to pitch the platform team, the regional brand rep, or the brand’s direct marketing head.

Hi, I’m MaTitie — the author of this post, a bloke who spends far too much time digging for bargains, testing tools, and chasing the best collabs across regions.
If you’re doing cross-border work from New Zealand, sometimes you’ll hit geo-blocks or regional landing pages that are a pain to access properly. A decent VPN helps with speed, testing ad placements, and seeing regional listings exactly as a brand or shopper would in SEA.
If you want a simple, reliable option, I rate NordVPN for speed and privacy here in NZ. It’s what I use when I’m checking how a product page or Lazada promo looks in Singapore or Malaysia before pitching a campaign.

Alright, time to roll up the sleeves. Below is a step-by-step playbook for finding and reaching Mexican brands on Lazada, plus what to include in your outreach.
1) Map brands that list on Lazada (fast scan)
– Use Lazada search and filter by brand names you know from Mexico (fashion, beauty, FMCG categories are common). Lazada increasingly promotes brand stores via LazMall and Super Brand Day activity — good signs that the brand has regional marketing support (see Lazada’s brand partnerships and awards, mentioned in local reporting on Lazada’s Seller & Partner Awards 2025).
– Cross-check product pages for “Official Store” badges and look at seller info to see if the seller is “International” or has a regional base.
2) Identify the right contact
– If the product page lists an “Official Store” on Lazada, start there: message through the store chat and ask for PR/partnership contact. Many brand stores forward partnership queries to regional marketing teams.
– If store chat fails, find the brand website and look for “Distributors” or “Regional offices” pages. Brands selling on Lazada often use regional enablers or distributors; theithome’s note on Alibaba’s business reorg is a reminder that many cross-border flows are handled by international commerce teams (ithome, 22 Aug 2025).
– Use LinkedIn to search for “Partnerships”, “Regional Marketing”, or “E-commerce Manager” linked to the brand. If the brand is small, look for founders or co-founders.
3) Pitch like you mean business — structure matters
– Subject line: short + clear. Example: “Collab pitch — Kiwi creator x [Brand] — 30k eng/mo (NZ/SEA focus)”
– Opening: 1 sentence who you are and what audience you own in NZ/SEA. Keep it tight.
– Proof points: 3 bullets — audience size, average engagement, one recent campaign outcome (CTR, sales uplift, affiliate link or promo code performance).
– Offer: A low-friction trial first — a 2-post package or a paid trial with a tracked promo code for Lazada. Brands like measurable outcomes and often prefer a promo code or affiliate link that shows direct attribution.
– Deliverables & timeline: list exact assets (Reels, Stories, LazLive appearance), posting dates, and tracking method.
– Ask: Close with a direct next step (15-min call link or request for their preferred partner contact).
4) Use platform levers to your advantage
– If the brand is running a Super Brand Day or LazMall push (Lazada has been increasing regional co-markets and brand enablement), pitch to be part of that activation — e.g., “I can run a product-focused livestream the week of your SBD to boost conversions” (theinfostride reported Lazada partnering with POP MART for Super Brand Day activations, 22 Aug 2025).
– Brands that win seller awards or rising star recognition often have internal marketing budgets and are more open to creator partnerships. Keep an eye on Lazada Seller & Partner Awards winners — these are potential high-signal targets.
5) Localise the value proposition
– Mexican brands will be interested in reach across SEA, not just NZ. Offer regional lift: show how a Kiwi audience can create aspirational content that translates to SEA markets — or offer bilingual assets (English + simple Spanish captions) if you can. Bringing audience segments (age, interests, platform behaviours) is gold.
6) Pricing & contracts
– Start with a paid trial or product-for-post + performance bonus tied to tracked sales. Ask for a simple MSA or influencer agreement that covers usage rights for ads, payment terms, exclusivity windows, and refunds.
– If a brand is reluctant to pay, ask for a commission on tracked orders or a CPL (cost-per-lead) model for newsletter signups.
7) Local compliance & logistics
– Confirm who handles returns, shipping claims, and customer service — on Lazada, some sellers manage returns centrally. Make sure your content doesn’t promise things beyond what the seller provides (e.g., shipping windows or freebies).
Real-world outreach template (short)

Can we jump on a 15-min call to explore? — [YourName] + Calendly link.
🙋 Frequently Asked Questions
❓ How do I find Mexican brands that actually sell on Lazada?
💬 Start by scanning LazMall and category pages for “Official Store” badges. If a brand’s product page lists an international seller or Lazada store, message the store for PR contacts. Cross-check the brand’s official site and LinkedIn for regional marketing or distributor contacts.
🛠️ What metrics should I include in my initial pitch to a Mexico-based brand?
💬 Lead with audience size, engagement rate, platform-specific reach (e.g., TikTok vs Instagram), and one short case study or campaign result. Offer a tracked promo code or affiliate link to make measurement simple — brands love numbers they can verify.
🧠 Is it better to pitch the Lazada platform team or the brand directly?
💬 Both have value. Pitch Lazada’s brand programmes if the brand is active on Lazada campaigns (SBD, LazMall) — the platform can sometimes broker collaborations. But for long-term ambassadorships, get the brand’s marketing or regional rep on board so you’re dealing with decision-makers.
🧩 Final Thoughts…
Cross-border brand ambassadorships are absolutely doable from New Zealand — you just need to be methodical and measurable. Lazada’s increasing focus on brand activations (from Super Brand Day collabs to seller awards) means brands selling regionally are warming up to creators who can prove impact. Use the platform’s badges and campaigns as signals, pitch with concrete tracking (promo codes, affiliate links), and offer a low-commitment trial that reduces risk for the brand. If you can package NZ influence as a pathway to aspirational content for SEA shoppers, you’re already ahead.
