The spread of Covid-19, a disease caused by the novel coronavirus, brought unprecedented challenges to many businesses, whilst drastically changing consumer purchasing behavior in each country. At the same time, amid the rise of China’s new economy, businesses are striving to adjust and make their business strategies fit the post Covid-19 era, thereby achieving new growth to reach a broader range of customers effectively. As a TMALL Ecological Partner and online distributor, transcosmos China has access to various digital tools offered by Alibaba that include the Alibaba databank and strategy center. Leveraging such tools, transcosmos China will analyze user interests in client brands and user purchasing habits, and other factors from diverse perspectives, and operate a customer-centric e-commerce business for the brands. Ultimately, transcosmos China helps the clients expand sales and achieve digital transformation.

The post Covid-19 era will bring in a dramatic change to the homeware market. Already, an increasing number of younger consumers prefer unique items, and buy online. With highly efficient logistics services and 24/7 customer support, TMALL offers high-quality products where consumers can shop anytime, anyplace. What’s more, customers are now able to get product information via live streaming on TMALL prior to their purchases. Building on its extensive experience and expertise in China’s new retail and online channel development, transcosmos China helps clients enter into the Chinese market.
