Executive Summary
Community e-commerce connects online traffic to neighbourhood infrastructure (retail stores/pick-up points/mini-warehouses) with better fulfilment efficiency than existing e-commerce and increases online supply at lower prices through supply chain restructuring. The concept of Community e-commerce is quite connected to community group buying. Community group buying, also known as collective buying, provides products and services at significantly discounted costs in exchange for a minimum number of consumers making the purchase. Community e-commerce has many benefits for both its consumers as well as for the platforms, which makes it more popular in the Chinese economy.
Community E-commerce can be segmented by product (Grocery and Non-grocery) and by business model (Community Group Purchase, O2O Platforms (Online-to-Offline platforms), and Mini Warehouse).
