Pinduoduo, like Alibaba’s Taobao and JD.com, is an e-commerce platform that sells anything from everyday foods to household appliances. Pinduoduo’s unique twist is the company’s “team purchasing” strategy, which integrates social components into the standard online shopping process. When a user buys something on Pinduoduo, they have the option of participating in group buying. The more people who participate, the lower the item’s price becomes.

E-commerce penetration in China is the highest in the world. However, e-commerce penetration for agricultural items is still small, and many Chinese farmers remain poor. PDD is ideally positioned to handle this, being China’s second-largest e-commerce site by several users.

Pinduoduo has been working on advanced algorithms and other technology to eliminate transshipment and enable point-to-point fulfilment, especially for low-margin and perishable agricultural products and foodstuffs.
