Fulfilment
With a fast-growing population, unemployment falling and GDP rising 7.5% year-on-year, China is becoming a premier e-commerce destination for more and more retailers.
China holds one of the biggest shares of the global e-commerce market, but to succeed in China requires a detailed understanding of Chinese culture, payment preferences and how they shop online.
The e-commerce landscape in China - and how to make it work for you
Single’s Day (November 11th) is the biggest shopping holiday in the world and, in 2017, China alone generated $25 billion in online sales; clearly, there’s huge appetite for e-commerce. Government schemes to improve infrastructure nationwide and connect China’s rural edges are also promising signs for future growth.
But tapping into such a huge market isn’t without its challenges. Competition is fierce in China and dominated by e-commerce giant Alibaba, which holds 58% of total retail e-commerce sales. The following competitor, JD.com, holds just 16%. However, Chinese consumers are open to new brands and will pay for foreign products they know and trust, if you can prove you’re a genuine and established brand, you’ll reap the rewards in cross-border sales.
