Chinese e-commerce company Alibaba is challenging Amazon by promising fast deliveries. From France to Japan, Alibaba’s goal is to deliver goods from China to anywhere in 72 hours. Can they successfully compete with Amazon? WSJ visits Alibaba’s largest automated warehouse to see how robots and a vast logistics network are helping it expand globally.

@UrAshWholeمنذ 3 سنوات It's funny because the majority of Amazon's 3rd party sellers (FBA sellers) sourced their products from Alibaba. 1608

@KirkBuchananمنذ 3 سنوات 72 hours shipping globally would be game changing. 856

@ttw06090منذ 3 سنوات It's a great thing to have competitions in such sector 206
@

@TommyShlongمنذ 3 سنوات If Alibaba can offer 72 hr shipping for a small annual fee, remove counterfeit products from its site and offer free/low cost returns, that would crush Amazon 85
@

@beaclaricevalencia4793منذ 2 سنوات It shouldn't be just how fast, should also be about the quality and authenticity guarantee of every product that they sell 34

@gangyang9801منذ 3 سنوات Most express delivery in China can cover 960 square kilometers within 24 hours, which is equivalent to the size of a Europe. And they work 7x24 hours and id="hidden2" class="buttons"> have a terrifying cold chain system. In China, you can buy an ice cream over 2000km away and get it in 24 hours. ....وسعت 17

@mattiaukمنذ 3 سنوات In Greece it's pointless, the package gets in Greece in 1 week, then is in customs for months :( 222
@

@zifnab7691منذ 3 سنوات From europe, alibaba seems to be only slightly cheaper than amazon but since stuff comes from outside of europe, we have to pay import tax which makes the products more expensive than on amazon in the end. 26
@

@user-qi9wz6iu9xمنذ 3 سنوات As long as alibaba can reach the Chinese factory and merchant directly, it may be difficult for Amazon to defeat in terms of price war. 91

@

@munza79منذ 3 سنوات The problem was never with the speed of shipping as most who ordered from alibaba were aware of the long wait. The issue is with the return and refund id="hidden4" class="buttons"> process which is close to impossible to ever get anywhere with. So if you receive a bad product from a dodgy seller (which you will) then your pretty much screwed. And that is where Amazon will have the advantage. ....وسعت 95

@mosarila8927منذ 3 سنوات the products from Amazon Canada are mostly from alibaba … 63
@

@benho1237منذ 3 سنوات Amazon is the middle man, they also have direct connections to factories in China too, as you can clearly see what profits Amazon is making, and that's one of the reasons how Jeff could go to space. 131
@

@Surya-jz6teمنذ 3 سنوات Here in India, Amazon has dominated the e commerce industry taking over home grown companies like Flipkart and Snapdeal. 13 USD per year prime membership for one-day deliveries and other perks, so can't complain. 44

@_nom_منذ 3 سنوات I'd love this. It takes 1.5-2 months usually 75
@

@godblessCLمنذ 3 سنوات What is certain is that Aliexpress must improve shipping time and reliability, even provide options at least. 27
@

@Cubannerdمنذ 3 سنوات Amazon doesn't make most of the money through their ecommerce anymore. Their AWS services are probably what is bringing in the big bucks. 53

@JohnNjengaCOCOمنذ 3 سنوات a good number of goods on Amazon originally came from Aliexpress to stores in Europe or USA 41

@miguelmezquita_eaمنذ 2 سنوات For me, the extremely step shipping cost has been always the issue in the first place. Then, the quantity of the products. 4
@

@sergiubarac1265منذ 2 سنوات In Greece, if you order from Alibaba - you would have to pay the import taxes, therefore Amazon is usually a better choice (as long as the product is in the EU already). 2

@no1ycxieمنذ 3 سنوات I am working for JD logistics who started to build its own logistic network at similar time when amazon tried to do the same thing in China. Amazon failed id="hidden8" class="buttons"> in China. JD logistics just listed in Hong Kong this year. we have warehouses with robots working there. JD logistics is famous for its speedy delivery. If you place you orders before noon, you can receive your parcels the same day, especially if you lived in big cities. ....وسعت

@bananabear009منذ 3 سنوات The heart of the problem is counterfeit products. I just received 6 counterfeit bike chains from Aliexpress. And the price is very high, no matter how cheap the shipment is. 2

@kitezopo2593منذ 3 سنوات This is not merely about between two tech e-commerce giants. But the retailers are affected as well. 1
@

@wric01منذ 3 سنوات Different market, in most of the world alibaba dominates with low price thus expect no returns and lowest price. Amazon service and return policy alone destroys alibaba in the west. 18

@cometome8194منذ 3 سنوات Thank you for posting this well made contents.

@fineway7053منذ 3 سنوات The China question isn't how many boxes Alibaba ships, but which box Jack Ma is hiding in. 41

@prashunpcchakraborty70منذ 3 سنوات Amazon can't win the price game but if it can improve it's vetting (only recommend high quality products and no fakes) then it's still game on. 7
@

@jonnybegoodtonightمنذ 3 سنوات USPS is the weak link in the chain. When goods from Alibaba arrive in the US the postal service slaps another label with a different tracking number over id="hidden12" class="buttons"> the top of the original one. When you are trying to track several packets its a total nightmare. ....وسعت 2
@

@TheUser808منذ 3 سنوات The problem is a lot of consumers outside of China are wary of the merchants on Alibaba. If they can promise customers peace of mind by doing a high level of QA, then Amazon will be in trouble. 2

@xenaz8988منذ 3 سنوات user experience in Alibaba is much better, you can talk with sellers at any time concerning your purchasing. love it! it's more like a community rather than cold buy and sells.

@darthashpie3370منذ 3 سنوات Amazon prime is pretty good in India since it also gives you access to amazon's other paid services like amazon music and video 7

@marioarcega4935منذ 3 سنوات How can they say in 72 hours will be delivered, I am a customer for almost three years in Ali express most of the time frame delivery was two weeks from id="hidden15" class="buttons"> China to Canada. Sometimes if you unlucky the parcel was lost in shipment, It happen many times. If China Ali express or Alibaba want to compete in Amazon its take a decade before they can say can be delivered for 72 hours. ....وسعت 1

@katel3962منذ 3 سنوات My hobby is jigsaw puzzles. Many European companies don't ship to the US, and won't sell via Amazon. BUT they do sell via AliExpress.

@

@deebee1284منذ 3 سنوات Too good to be true. Returns would be extremely difficult for sure.
@

@onm7منذ 3 سنوات From 1st July 2021, the EU has introduced a fee for goods entering from China, of about 25 euro or so (30USD), hence this is impacting a lot on AliExpress id="hidden22" class="buttons"> deliveries. It's not worth anymore to buy from Europe to AliBaba given this high fee. In fact, most people were using AliExpress to buy items for few dollars with no shipping costs. Now that cannot be the case anymore. ....وسعت 15
@

@TheSecurityAgencyمنذ 3 سنوات Sounds nice, still for the EU it takes exactly the same 4 weeks like 2 years ago. One has an option though to pay for a more expensive express delivery id="hidden23" class="buttons"> and on top custom taxes.
What you're talking about here sound like a commercial to get investor's money. ....وسعت

@platin2148منذ 3 سنوات If they also make that possible with the new regulations in Europe to import great for them. Aliexpress has also the problem of bad descriptions and weird ways to select options.

@mikeyoung9810منذ 3 سنوات The last mile will be solved via robots if they can solve the problem of people not being home for the delivery and awkward size packages.

@anthomore4269منذ 3 سنوات Shipping from China to the world it will takes way much time and $. It would be best if Alababa open multiple warehouses in the countries .
