The Current Landscape of Cross-Border E-Commerce in the USA

This year, as we cross into new business horizons, many friends have been asking me about the current state of cross-border e-commerce in the USA. Can we still succeed in this field? ❓

In my personal view, the golden age of cross-border e-commerce has passed. We are no longer in a time where opportunities seem to be abundant everywhere. Given the fluctuating international landscape, a lot is possible, but equally, much is uncertain. Nevertheless, cross-border e-commerce continues to receive strong support. Various stakeholders are actively seeking ways to revitalize the economy and promote trade domestically and internationally.

Government Support and Initiatives

According to reports, the Deputy Minister of International Trade Negotiations of China, Wang Shouwen, has emphasized the importance of developing cross-border e-commerce to empower industries. The initiative includes partnerships with 165 cross-border e-commerce pilot zones in China, aimed at helping more foreign trade enterprises, particularly small and medium-sized businesses, connect with overseas buyers, secure orders, and engage in international trade. 🕸️

In simpler terms, this translates into strong backing for cross-border e-commerce to relieve pressure on the domestic e-commerce scene. Sellers of all sizes are encouraged to explore new avenues rather than fixate on saturated markets, or they risk missing out on potential profits. 🍰
