In the report, Zhang Rui, head of the Korean market at AliExpress , said: "Korea is a key market for AliExpress to expand this year. "

South Korea is the world's fifth largest e-commerce market, and Korean consumers have a very high demand for Chinese products. Especially with the entry into force of RCEP, South Korea is rapidly becoming a new opportunity for Chinese cross-border merchants.

Korean media reported that as more and more Korean consumers use AliExpress to shop , AliExpress's support for the Korean market is also increasing . In order to solve the logistics problem that Korean consumers are most concerned about, AliExpress and Cainiao have established a preferred warehouse in Weihai, Shandong, which is specifically for the Korean market. By shipping through the Weihai preferred warehouse, a local logistics experience of 3-5 days can be achieved .

At the same time, AliExpress continues to lower the shopping threshold for Korean consumers and improve the competitiveness of Chinese cross-border merchants in the local market . For example, it has developed Korean support services and machine learning technology to enable smooth communication between buyers and sellers ; in 2020, it opened a Korean customer center, and Korean consumers can conveniently use the return and exchange service through the Seoul Return Center .

Recently, media in Chile, Poland and other countries have reported that AliExpress has become the largest cross-border e-commerce platform in their regions. These are markets that are often overlooked by domestic cross-border merchants but have huge potential. With the help of AliExpress's mature market layout and service capabilities, merchants can quickly and at low cost seize new business opportunities.
