Fitbit. the leading global wearables brand, today announced it is launching in Indonesia, with the availability of its line of top-selling smartwatches and activity and sleep-tracking products. Fitbit’s vision is to make the world healthier with a platform that empowers people with information, a fun and engaging experience, and insights and guidance for users to get the most out of their devices and help them reach their health and fitness goals.

Helping Indonesians be healthier, more active
Indonesians are increasingly focused on health and fitness and are turning to technology to help them reach their goals as a result of multiple factors, including changing consumer lifestyles and demographics. According to the World Health Organization, stroke, heart disease and diabetes are the top health issues facing Indonesians. While increased physical activity helps to reduce the risk of these chronic diseases, a recent study found that Indonesians walked the fewest steps of the 46 countries the researchers studied – an average of 3,513 steps daily.
“With a growing focus on personal health, fitness and overall wellbeing across the country, and the strong demand for mobile devices and technology in the market, Fitbit is thrilled to provide consumers in Indonesia with our range of health and fitness devices at affordable prices across all major mobile platforms, helping everyone find the right fit for their lifestyle and goals,” said Steve Morley, Vice President and General Manager, Asia Pacific, Fitbit. “The wearables category has the potential to help people achieve better health outcomes, which is our singular focus at Fitbit. Underscoring all of this is our ongoing commitment to deliver the most engaging experience possible to support our users on their health and fitness journeys.”
