Description of the course

Cross-border Ecommerce is rapidly changing. Previously the US and China ecommerce ecosystems existed alongside of each other, now they are going head-to-head. Most Western companies are taken by surprise, but it doesn’t have to be that way.

Global governments are responding to protect their borders. Consumers are presented with a bill that is still more attractive compared to buying locally. There is a lot of unknown about how Chinese Market Places and Logistic provider operate to gain a competitive advantage at a global scale. It’s not just a price race to the bottom, it’s far more complex than that.

With 15 years of experience in sourcing, procurement, small parcel logistics and fulfilment in China Simon will provide a Master Class on how to navigate these significant challenges. The Master Class focuses on more than shipping out a parcel or fulfilling an order, it shares the mechanisms from production till delivery and how strongly they are connected.

It will cover production, fulfilment, logistics, custom clearance, and last mile delivery, providing you with a deep understanding of each touch point throughout the eCommerce parcel’s journey. Without this understanding your business might be left behind! Making use of this masterclass will help you to position your business strategically for the years to come. If you want to have a deeper understanding on what the demand chain of the future looks like, then this class is for you.
