TechNavio recognizes the following companies as the key players in the E-tailing Market in China: 360buy Ltd., Amazon.com, Dandang.com Inc., Newegg.com Inc., Suning.com, Taobao.com, and Vancl.com
Commenting on the report, an analyst from TechNavio’s team said: “The changing market dynamics in China is forcing vendors to provide different platforms to attract more and more customers. At present, the C2C platform is mostly used by consumers, who constitute 80 percent of the market in China. Customer demands are expected to increase, which will force vendors to shift to the B2C model. The consumers searching for high-quality products and services generally utilize B2C business models. Most of the vendors which have established their business in the C2C platform utilize B2C platform-based websites such as Taobao.com. Taobao.com was divided into three separate sites, which include Taobao MarketPlace, a C2C-based business model, and Tmall, a B2C business model. It has been forecast that the B2C platform will intensify the e-commerce experience. Some of the B2C platforms in China are Amazon.com, Walmart, Dell, Suning.com, 360buy Ltd., and Dangdang.com Inc.”
According to the report, one of the major drivers is increased penetration of internet technologies such as broadband and 3G and 4G connections, which have helped e-tailing vendors improve the online deployment of their products and services. This in turn has provided customers with the ease of making purchases without being bound by geographical or time-related constraints.
Further, the report states that the issues with logistics are one of the major challenges faced by the market. Shipping costs affect the total cost, especially when it comes to international deliveries. This increase in the shipping cost increases the retailers’ expenses and inventory costs.
The study was conducted using an objective combination of primary and secondary information including inputs from key participants in the industry. The report contains a comprehensive market and vendor landscape in addition to a SWOT analysis of the key vendors.
