PRESS RELEASE
Hamburg, February 23th
, 2017
New developments in cross-border E-Commerce in the Asia-Pacific
yStats.com, an E-Commerce market research company from Hamburg, released a new report “Asia-Pacific Cross-
Border B2C E-Commerce 2017” that conveys information about advancements within cross-border online shopping in the Asia-
Pacific. Market research forecasts that Asia-Pacific will become the top region worldwide in terms of cross-border online retail
sales by 2020.
As reported by yStats.com, the Asia-Pacific is the biggest region globally in terms of E-Commerce sales and cross-border online
shopping is advancing further. This report cites estimations that between 2014 and 2020, Asia-Pacific will have the leading contribution
to cross-border B2C E-Commerce sales globally, more than Western Europe or North America.
China has made its way to the top of this trend due to the rapid escalation of cross-border online imports and exports.
However, this country is outranked by Australia and Singapore in terms of share of E-Commerce consumers purchasing cross-border. A
recent survey cited by yStats.com also places South Korea in the running, with almost half of online shoppers making cross-border
purchases. In contrast, Japan ranks as the country with consumers who are least likely to buy cross-border. Japan exports more E-
Commerce products to countries such as China and the USA than it imports.
Cross-border online consumers from South Korea and Australia have the highest demand for clothing. In contrast, E-
Commerce consumers in China prefer cosmetics and children’s products. yStats.com research also shows that almost two-thirds of
Chinese cross-border online consumers utilize import channels of major Chinese E-commerce websites such as Alibaba’s Tmall Global
and JD.com’s JD Worldwide.
