Feb23479 DHGATE Group: Selling Online Made Simple Founded in 2004, DHGATE Group aims to accelerate digitalisation to empower micro, small, and medium-sized enterprises (MSMEs), women owned businesses, and society as a whole. The company has launched two digital platforms, including DHgate, one of the leading B2B cross-border e-commerce platforms in China, and MyyShop, a pioneering cross-border social commerce platform. Dedicated to connect MSMEs from every corner of the world with high-quality products, the company is proud to have won Best E-commerce Platform 2023, China, in the Corporate Excellence Awards. As a leading B2B e-commerce platform for goods made in China, DHgate helps businesses access high-quality products at the best price from every corner of the world, hosting over 30 million items in a wide range of categories. By the end of 2022, DHgate had served more than 59.6 million registered buyers from 225 countries and regions by connecting them with over 2.54 million Chinese sellers. The platform has seen significant growth in the last year due to trending products, emerging markets, and new users. In 2020, DHGATE launched MyyShop, a social commerce platform which allows effortless selling on social media. The platform provides content creators AI-powered tailored product recommendations that their audiences will find irresistible. Through this, DHGATE allows creators to sell with confidence, backed by a reliable world-leading supply chain and secure in the knowledge that their products are in demand. Recently, MyyShop made its debut, showcasing its cutting-edge services, at the SXSW Creative Industries Expo, a gathering of entrepreneurs, innovators, and disruptors in industries such as technology and entertainment. In the coming year, DHGATE Group plans to continue to focus on the creator economy and upgrade its supply chain based on the needs of content creators. The company’s goal for 2023 is to support 1,000 high-quality merchants and connect them with 1 million content creators globally. Moving forwards, the company plans to accelerate its expansion into the US by opening 100 showrooms within three years to connect with overseas buyers, partners, and content creators, making its services more accessible. In February 2023, DHGATE launched the first of these in Los Angeles, which attracted many social media content creators with millions of followers. To further aid in its penetration of the US domestic market, DHGATE has launched a local partner distribution system, utilising its network of connections in adjacent industries and regions. These connections will provide a one-stop service for the sourcing and assembly of goods, technical support, logistics, warehousing, supply chain finance, and other areas. Through this, the company helps the platform’s sellers achieve their goals. At DHGATE Group, policies have been put in place that aim to create an equal work environment for male and female employees, creating an inclusive and empowering internal culture. Women have access to fair opportunities and enjoy the same rights and benefits as men in recruitment, promotion, and other areas. Additionally, women at DHGATE Group receive at least 128 days of fully paid maternity leave, baby care rooms for new mothers, and other necessary benefits. The company strives to increase women’s participation in technological, innovation-driven sectors, and to give female employees the voice they deserve in the workplace. As a result of the outstanding platforms it has created, connecting the dots across different organisations, coordinating efforts and maximising resources, DHGATE Group has won Best E-commerce Platform 2023, China, in the Corporate Excellence Awards. With big plans for the future, there is no doubt that both DHgate and MyyShop will continue to grow and penetrate new markets across the world.
