Ebay Deepening The Third Party Overseas Warehouse Mode, Cross-Border Electricity Providers Are Growing Rapidly

"China's products are particularly competitive, and the experience of Chinese teams in developing cross-border pactions for many years is getting better." in November 18th, Lin Yizhang, vice president of global eBay and chief executive officer of Greater China, revealed that cross-border trade between China and the European and American markets has been the fastest growing business of eBay in the cross-border trade of eBay.

This data shows that China's cross-border e-commerce pactions are hot.

According to a research report released last year by IARI, it is estimated that by 2016, the scale of cross-border e-commerce pactions in China will reach 6 trillion and 500 billion yuan, accounting for 19% of the total foreign trade scale.

According to the data released by eBay in September, the average number of eBay commercial sellers in China has been exported to 63 countries, which is much higher than the average number of eBay commercial sellers exported to 19 countries worldwide.

In the context of the rapid growth of cross-border e-commerce pactions in China, eBay is trying to further cooperate with the third party cross border logistics platform.

On the same day, eBay signed a strategic cooperation agreement with China's cross-border e-commerce provider, Wan Yi Tong Mdt InfoTech Ltd (hereinafter referred to as Wan Yi Tong). The two sides announced that they will build a comprehensive supply chain service system tailored to eBay sellers.

In this cooperation mode, Wan Yi Tong will base on overseas warehouses and rely on big data to provide eBay sellers with services covering international air and sea pportation, overseas warehouse management and last mile delivery.

It is reported that Wan Yi Tong currently has global direct warehouses in China, the United States, Britain, Germany and Australia.

It is worth noting that eBay itself has eBay Enterprise platform, but the platform serves most of the retailers in the United States, mainly for retailers to do warehousing.

In addition, according to Lin Yizhang,

Some large business sellers built overseas warehouses early, but when they first started using overseas warehouses or entered a new market, he believed that using the third party platform could reduce the risk and cost of operation.

Lin Yizhang said, in terms of cross-border trade, there are many challenges in logistics. "First of all, the price of this logistics is very high, the speed is slow, facing a variety of barriers to customs clearance and customs clearance. In the process of pportation, the seller needs to deal with the problems of the safety and safety certification of goods, whether the goods can be put to the consumers' hands is also a challenge, which will greatly affect the consumer experience of consumption."

It also points out that the important direction of cross border trade in the future is to achieve localization.

That is,

The seller must have the ability to provide the same products and services as the local retailers, so as to be competitive.

According to the introduction, the mode of "first shipment and post sale" in overseas warehouses subverts the supply chain of traditional cross border logistics, helps sellers improve their delivery time and ability, enhance the experience of return, and compete with foreign sellers in the same line.

Lin Yizhang said that as an intermediate link between consumers and sellers, the overseas warehouse has narrowed the distance between buyers and sellers in geography, making it possible for cross-border traders to provide localization services, and also subverting the logistics mode of cross-border e-commerce retail export industry.
