The United States is the world's largest clothing consumer market, with a market size of $351 billion in 2023 and is expected to grow to $390 billion by 2028. American consumers have always maintained a strong demand for fashion apparel, especially on e-commerce platforms, where consumers are increasingly inclined to buy clothing, shoes and accessories online.
In recent years, with the popularity of fast fashion, e-commerce platforms and the growing demand for personalized clothing, more cross-border sellers want to enter the US market. As one of the fastest-growing e-commerce platforms in recent years, TEMU is providing new sales opportunities for cross-border sellers. In particular, its semi-hosting model is attracting a large number of clothing sellers to settle in.
TEMU semi-hosting model: flexible and efficient new opportunities
The TEMU platform mainly provides two modes: full hosting and semi-hosting:
Full hosting mode: Sellers only need to send goods to TEMU's designated warehouse, and the platform is fully responsible for warehousing, logistics and after-sales service. This model is suitable for novice sellers, but sellers have less control over inventory and returns, and may face more restrictions in the after-sales process.
Semi-hosting mode: Sellers can independently manage some logistics links, such as return receipt, quality inspection, label change, etc. Compared with full trusteeship, the semi-trusteeship model allows sellers to have higher flexibility, especially in terms of return processing and inventory management. Sellers can choose to cooperate with professional third-party overseas warehouses to optimize operating costs and improve logistics efficiency.
For clothing sellers, the semi-trusteeship model is particularly suitable. The return rate of clothing categories is high, especially in the US market, where consumers are generally accustomed to "no reason to return", which requires sellers to have more stable local warehousing and return processing solutions. Therefore, it is crucial to find a US overseas warehouse that supports TEMU semi-trusteeship.
