Once an unmissable fixture in the marketing diary of any consumer company serious about growing sales and customers in the world’s biggest e-commerce market, Singles Day or Double 11 is now regarded with much circumspect by brands and consumers alike.
Against a background of a slowing economy and softening of consumer demand, China’s e-commerce and social commerce platforms are accelerating competition for the purchases of Chinese consumers. But consumers are displaying caution and value consideration with many calling online for more “rational” spending. Plenty of them are eschewing purchases despite the heavy discounts - choosing instead to spend on activities and products leading to personal fulfillment.
What does this mean for the future of China’s multiple shopping festivals and your China budgets?
