E-commerce war begins, 30% of e-commerce enterprises go bankrupt
Written by Jamesdong
There are more and more e-commerce enterprises seeking funds to run e-business at present, on the contrary, more and more small and medium sized enterprises go bankrupt.
According to Shenzhen e-commerce industry association statistics, nearly 30 percent of e-commerce enterprises were phased out from the market.
A survey revealed that funding problem is vital for e-commerce enterprises to survive; many e-commerce enterprises went bankrupt if they did not spend more money on it.
Polarization is also obvious in e-commerce industry since some leading and bellwether enterprises could easily solve financial problems and funds can actively go to such enterprises, the remaining 99% small and medium sized enterprises can not get any fund in the end.
Shenzhen e-commerce industry association revealed statistics, by the end of last year, 500 enterprises have transferred to other industries from 3700 total registered enterprises. The association is not positive on the trend and estimates that there will be more enterprises squeezing out from the market as they may lack of talents, funds or advanced concept.
One CEO from a large portal said there are many e-commerce enterprises operating under losses so they need to get more fund or even reveal fake or incorrect financial report to the outside.
