Manufacturing Advantages Help the Rise of Cross-border E-commerce

In recent years, with the policy support of the Dongguan government for cross-border e-commerce, Dongguan has gradually transformed from a "manufacturing city" to a "cross-border e-commerce city". A large number of small and medium-sized sellers and factory-type enterprises have entered the field of cross-border e-commerce, relying on platforms such as Amazon, eBay, and Temu to open up the global market.

New trends bring new challenges

As global consumers' requirements for shopping experience increase, returns have become an indispensable part of e-commerce transactions. However, for cross-border sellers in Dongguan, overseas returns are cumbersome and costly, especially when facing different administrative regions and complex policies, they are often prone to the following dilemmas:

High logistics costs: Overseas returns involve long-distance transportation, and the cost is difficult to control.

Complex operation procedures: Returns often require re-quality inspection, labeling or destruction, which consumes a lot of manpower and material resources for sellers.

Differences in policy regulations: Different countries have different customs clearance and tax declaration requirements for returned goods, and a slight mistake may lead to fines or detention.
