China’s cross-border e-commerce platforms, such as Temu, Shein and AliExpress have rapidly gained global standing, disrupting traditional retail markets in Western countries. These platforms offer a wide variety of affordable products, often leveraging China’s manufacturing strength and efficient supply chains to undercut competitors. Their success is driven by direct-to-consumer models, quick delivery, and low pricing. However, European regulators and retailers have raised concerns about unfair competition and quality issues.
Join our upcoming webinar “‘The Rise of Temu and other Chinese cross-border webshops and how to deal with them” on November 21, 2024 at 15:00 CET to explore the rise of China’s cross-border e-commerce giant Temu. Is Temu really serious about dealing with the complaints from consumers and regulators? Are all claims and complaints about their business model correct? What is Temu doing to solve these issues? Should we, as European consumers, be worried about security issues and personal data?
Learn how Temu’s disruptive business model is reshaping retail in Europe, how we should understand their business practices and get expert insights on how retailers and regulators can navigate these challenges. Don’t miss this crucial discussion—register now!
