"We're in China today because I believe in one thing: global vision, local win."
Jack Ma, CEO of Alibaba
Many international brands and multi-channel retailers see the opportunity in China and make the jump without stepping back and defining their objectives, targets and potential. We strongly encourage our clients to take a step back and understand the local market ecosystem, the Chinese online consumers, how local and international competitors are already selling online in China, and lastly how an efficient product & pricing strategy between E-Commerce and traditional retail will have to be integrated.
Some brands and retailers go straight for a China standalone e-shop. Some take advantage of existing 3rd party platforms such as Taobao T-Mall, Tmall Global, JD.com / JingDong (formerly 360Buy), Amazon China and shop.QQ. Others do it all. We determine what is best for our clients and from system integration, designing, choosing best practices for page & product set up, we help establish an online sales solution wherever the targeted China consumer group is looking to purchase!
Whether you decide to outsource only certain processes or go for a one-stop-solution for your China E-Commerce, we can adapt our service offerings to your exact needs across shop frontend development, backend & order management, warehousing, photography, shop management, performance marketing, fulfillment, pick & pack, logistics, payment, CRM and customer support. We act as your China E-Commerce Lead, managing & executing all core-processes inhouse and working with trusted partners for supporting services.
In 2014 Tmall launched Tmall Global (http://www.tmall.hk), which allows any foreign merchant or brand to sell directly to Chinese consumers without having to require a legal entity, warehouse or staff in China. Web2Asia is one of the leading certified Tmall Partners to setup and operate Tmall International shops. Shipping is handled via cross-border delivery or through a bonded warehouse in one the China free-trade zones.
