Cross-border e-commerce in China.

Significance

Cross-border e-commerce allows consumer goods companies outside China to sell directly to Chinese consumers without a formal legal presence in China. Government policy has supported the rapid growth of this industry while cracking down on unofficial channels.

Impacts

Consumer goods that cannot otherwise be sold in China can be sold through the cross-border e-commerce channel.

Chinese e-commerce companies are increasing emphasis on their cross-border e-commerce platforms.

Sales to overseas Chinese who resell products in China will become less important to well-known brands.
