Skyrocketing trade

Hangzhou’s cross-border e-commerce volume skyrocketed to US$3.46 billion last year, 170 times that of 2014. The enormous increase has largely been attributed to the central government’s decision to set up the Hangzhou cross-border e-commerce pilot zone.

Last year, 366 cross-border e-commerce companies were registered in Hangzhou, including 99 renowned companies such as Singapore-based Global Logistic Properties and China’s second-biggest online retailer jd.com.

In March 2015, the State Council approved the creation of Hangzhou cross-border e-commerce pilot zone, which is to explore solutions to problems in cross-border e-commerce and provide experiences for other places in the country. As of January, 12 more cross-border e-commerce zones have been set up in several cities in China, including Shanghai, Suzhou, Guangzhou, Chengdu and Shenzhen.
