The “Tariff Escort Program” was well received and attracted strong attention

After in-depth analysis, we found that one of the core reasons for the sharp rise in this boom list is that on April 11, Dunhuang Network issued an open letter on the “Tariff Escort Plan” to merchants, stating that through this plan, the platform will provide participating merchants with various aspects of traffic, subsidies, logistics, etc., to help reduce cost pressure and stabilize sales. At the same time, Dunhuang Network said that tariff barriers are a challenge, and also a great opportunity for merchants and friends to optimize the supply chain and cultivate brand values and services. The launch of the “Tariff Escort Plan” has enabled Dunhuang Network to receive unanimous praise and recognition from cross-border merchants, and has also won widespread attention and traffic from all over the industry.

Dunhuang Network was founded in 2004. It is China's leading B2B e-commerce online trading service platform, covering 225 countries and regions around the world, providing more than 100 logistics routes and 14 overseas warehouses, and has global business offices in North America, Latin America, Europe, etc. In 2022, Dunhuang Network Company announced an official upgrade to Dunhuang Network Group, with the centralized cross-border e-commerce platform Dunhuang Network (DHgate) and the decentralized social e-commerce platform MyYShop as the core business engines.

The tariff policy is like a weather vane for the cross-border e-commerce industry. Every change will cause huge waves in the entire cross-border e-commerce industry and even large economies. Dunhuang's dominance shows us that China's cross-border platforms play an important role in the international e-commerce market. We are full of confidence and look forward to seeing and working together to help more Chinese cross-border e-commerce apps achieve a leap forward.
