Latin American Market
Since the outbreak of the COVID19, the Latin American eCommerce market seems to usher in a new wave of development.
According to relevant data, under the pandemic, the sales of Latin American home care products, laundry products, disinfectants, hand sanitizers and other products have increased significantly.
Since the Latin American market does not prohibit the sale of disinfection products, platform sellers such as Wish and AliExpress have been selling such products.In addition to anti-epidemic supplies, because many offline physical stores in Latin America are still unable to resume business, local consumers are also transferring the products they are accustomed to buying offline to online. Therefore, household appliances, home furnishings, fashion, maternal and child products have also become hot-selling categories on several business platforms.
Southeast Asia Market
In a recent survey and analysis, Facebook and Bain report pointed out that Southeast Asian online retail is mainly focused in the fields of clothing, accessories and personal care. Under the influence of COVID19, nearly 50% of consumers in Southeast Asia spend more on buying fresh and packaged groceries online. In addition, 3C electronics, sports, beauty, cleaning, kitchen supplies and other categories have also seen significant growth.
Japanese and Korean market
During the post-COVID world in Japan, the demand for home sports equipment, pajamas, underwear, socks, indoor cleaning products, game products; and pet grooming have increased significantly. In addition, cooking, sewing, and storage products are also very popular.
According to the "Daily Life Report" recently released by CJ Korea Express, household products have replaced travelling products and have become the main shopping needs of Koreans during the post-COVID world.
