(Reuters) - Alibaba Group Holding Ltd saidabout $2 billion worth of goods were sold on the e-commerce giant's websiteswithin the first hour and 12 seconds of its annual shopping festival.
Alibaba did $3.1 billion in business in half a day during last year's festival, equivalent to what it sold in the fullday in 2012.
Half of the $2 billion gross merchandise volume this year was sold within thefirst 18 minutes after the "11.11 Shopping Festival" opened, thecompany said.
The sale, which the company claims is the world's biggest 24-hour online sale,began in 2009 when 27 merchants on the company's Tmall.com site offered deepdiscounts to boost sales during an otherwise weak period.
This year's festival is global, reaching shoppers in more than 200 countries,the company said.
