DBA China President said, B2C market competition was more intensified, but B2C is more positive than C2C market in the long term view.
He estimated that B2C may grasp more market shares of C2C, especially in large cities.
Foreign media claimed that as B2C e-commerce websites products are growing and diversified, and product price is falling down. So B2C will take place of C2C and become the main battlefield of e-commerce industry in China.
We can see e-business growth is from B2C rather than from C2C and 360buy.com and Alibaba.com is entering B2C fields, which presents the mega trend.
Such enterprises are taking initiatives in financing and developing B2C market in China. The market scale is expected to be doubled within the next two years. Different enterprises positioned different products to occupy the market.
Analysys International estimated that 360 buy may go public in the USA, which may be the largest scale of internet enterprise IPO ever since.
Taobao mall provides different platform for enterprises to sell products to the consumers rather than selling products to the consumers directly. The admission fees of entering Taobao mall may rise as Taobao is aiming to improve quality and introduce better enterprises to join.
C2C platforms provide various products at low price but the advantages may be replaced by B2C portals since B2C websites can provide guaranteed quality products and services at comparatively low price.
