As can be seen from the above table, Vendio also provides product login management.

For Alibaba's acquisition of Vendio, the research center of the billion power network thinks that this is positive for both Aliexpress and Vendio. The purpose and significance of the acquisition are as follows:

1, help Aliexpress open up international market.

Relying on China's strong manufacturing capacity and Alibaba platform's original influence, Aliexpress does not lack suppliers, but its buyers are few at present.

Alibaba can acquire a large number of European and American businesses through the acquisition of Vendio, and Vendio can become the purchaser of Aliexpress at this time.

That is, sellers on Aliexpress first sell products wholesale to businesses on Vendio platforms, then businesses on Vendio platforms, and then sell products to terminal consumers through eBay platforms.

2, help to improve Aliexpress's own industrial chain.

Vendio is one of the 27 existing certification services providers (Certified Providers) on the eBay platform. These certified vendors can make the eBay platform run more smoothly, similar to Taobao's open platform.

While Aliexpress and eBay are the retail platforms for foreign trade C2C, the third party service providers required by eBay will also be the third party service providers that Aliexpress will need in the future.

Aliexpress can improve its industrial chain to a certain extent through the acquisition of Vendio, and provide an effective reference for the third party service platform that Aliexpress may need to build in the future.

3, contribute to Vendio

With the power of Alibaba capital and Aliexpress's own resources, Vendio can gradually improve its products and expand product lines.

Billion proposal

The biggest purpose of Alibaba's acquisition of Vendio is to make effective use of the 8 businesses on the Vendio platform, so that these businesses can purchase goods from the Aliexpress platform and sell them through platforms such as eBay.

However, if we want to achieve this goal, we need the functions of the Aliexpress platform, such as delivery by suppliers.

In the absence of relevant functions, the synergy between the two will be greatly reduced.

At the same time, the characteristics of the C2C platform make it difficult for Aliexpress to provide relevant functions.

So in order to maximize the utility of the acquisition Vendio, the research center of the billion power network thinks that in the long run, Aliexpress needs to provide Drop shipping function for its users.

Extended reading: about Drop shipping

Drop shipping means direct business, direct pportation (from supplier procurement to customer directly) business process.

The items in the order are not in the business, or because the stores do not have enough warehouses to store them in the supplier's warehouse and send them directly from the suppliers to the customers.

To put it simply, the consignor delivers the goods directly to the end consumers instead of middlemen. It is commonly seen in online trade such as eBay and so on.

Or drop shipping simply means skipping your customer directly to your customers.

In this way, he can save the pressure of inventory and save time.

In the field of foreign trade and retail, lightinthebox.com B2C and other foreign trade Drop websites provide Drop shipping functions.
