Among the findings revealed in “China B2C E-Commerce Market 2015” is that the growth rates, though still high, are predicted to slow down.
The highest potential for growth of online retail in China is reported to be in rural areas and small villages. Major E-Commerce companies are already expanding their logistics and delivery services to cover these regions. Another important trend is proliferation of mobile commerce, which accounted for around one third of total online retail sales in China in 2014 and is predicted to increase its share further. Moreover, cross-border E-Commerce imports to China are growing, heating the interest of international players. The B2C E-Commerce market in China is dominated by domestic companies. Two players, Alibaba Group which operates B2C marketplace Tmall among other E-Commerce businesses and online retailer JD.com each held an international IPO in 2014 and are actively expanding in China, as well as on the international markets through their cross-border platforms. Meanwhile, a number of smaller niche players have been backed up by investment capital, such as group buying websites Meituan and Dianping and online food delivery service Ele.me. Competition in B2C E-Commerce also intensifies, as foreign players such as US-based Amazon and Walmart enhance their efforts in China. Press Contact: yStats.com GmbH & Co.
