According to news on April 12, AliExpress's semi-managed service has been online for 100 days, and the latest report card has been released: last month alone, orders from 20,000 merchants doubled. At the beginning of the new year in 2024, AliExpress took the lead in firing the starting gun of semi-managed services, helping merchants upgrade logistics services at a lower cost, and opening the door to small and medium-sized sellers and brand merchants with a wide range of categories. Now, AliExpress itself is constantly increasing investment, preparing for the "Ten Billion Subsidy Brands Going Global" plan, etc., so that more merchants can benefit.
