Dublin, Nov. 13, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The "Shein, Temu and TikTok: Disrupting the Runway, the Future of Fashion Retailing" report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.
The global fashion industry stands at the precipice of transformation. Shein will become the World's biggest fashion player this year. With turnover of US$22.7bn in 2022 the company outperformed H&M's sales, but was still behind the combined turnover of all the Inditex brands taken together.
The compelling rise of Shein and its impressive growth is mainly down to its innovative business model. The set up is quite special - and could perhaps only be executed in China, as it is based on a combination of speed and the reversal of signal flows in the supply chain. Shein works as a platform for a multitude of manufacturers and suppliers, but not as a 3P marketplace. Only when there is demand on the frontend (the website/app) for a product (and the already produced prototype) will the back end produce the best sellers in meaningful quantities.
Key Questions Answered
- How much spend in D2C ecommerce/retail is already going directly to China and its retailers?
- How can Shein and Temu send their products so cheaply to the West? Who is able to make a profit on this? How does this work? Which loopholes are being exploited?
- How exactly do the logistics work? Could others (i.e. non Chinese players) tap into these networks?
- How big will Temu get in 2023? Are the current GMV predictions around USD13bn realistic? Will Temu become a challenger to Amazon? Or is it another Wish?
- What can Western retailers do about this? Can they still compete realistically with price differences of up to 70% between Temu and Amazon on identical products from the same seller?
- Can western payers copy the supply chain model? Or are they shut out by design? Could a Shein like production cluster be set up outside of China and where should this be located?
- How will the fashion business change in future, when it's no longer Inditex, H&M or Uniqlo at the top? Will environmental standards or labour protection slip back?
- What will be the impact of the EU's digital product pass - or legislation in Congress on the fast fashion sector and especially on the Chinese apps? Could this stop the Chinese players?
- Will TikTok/livestream shopping take off in the West, as it has in China? Will influencers and virality simply eat the existing industry's lunch? Will selling from China through a Chinese platform to Western consumers be the next phase of globalisation and retail?
