Seeking to make a splash in the Chinese market? Dive into our guide on how to leverage Singles’ Day in 2023, the world’s largest retail event which kicks off on October 31st.
Often referred to as 11.11, Double 11, or Singles’ Day in China, this shopping extravaganza eclipses Black Friday and Cyber Monday combined. Imagine a stage where global brands, whether budding or well-established, can magnify their visibility and showcase fresh products to the world’s second-largest economic powerhouse.
While emerging social platforms like Douyin and Xiaohongshu (Red) are creating ripples, traditional e-commerce titans such as Tmall and JD.com continue to dominate. In the race to stay ahead, these e-commerce giants are continuously innovating, offering enriched content and unbeatable prices.
The aftermath of the pandemic has seen businesses eager to clear inventory and consumers, after enduring a 3-year lockdown, eager to indulge in shopping. However, it’s worth noting that consumer behaviours in China have evolved, paving the way for niche brands that deliver top-notch products at the right price point.
While high-income demographics continue to prioritize brand loyalty and new product launches, they’re also increasingly focusing on the overall consumer experience. Meanwhile, the budget-conscious demographic is evolving, gravitating towards both value and captivating content. And let’s not forget the mass affluent; their keen eye for value is undeniable.
Singles' Day 2022 Promotions on Tmall
But let’s not forget the industry giants. On Singles’ Day 2022, transactions for 87 global beauty brands skyrocketed by 200% YoY within the first 10 minutes on JD Worldwide. Furthermore, luxury sales from prestigious brands under the LVMH Group umbrella, like Celine and Fendi, experienced a staggering 18-fold increase from the preceding year.
One trend in 2023 that’s impossible to ignore is the harmonious integration of online and offline shopping experiences. As physical stores regain their footing, businesses are magnifying this revival online, especially on platforms like WeChat, solidifying customer allegiance and fostering repeat patronage.
Leading e-commerce platforms are becoming increasingly welcoming to small and medium enterprises, making it a golden era for niche brands.
Take Tmall, for instance. They’ve restructured their approach to guarantee a balanced traffic flow between large enterprises and SMEs. This includes offering benefits like expedited registration, top-tier marketing positions, and robust operational assistance.
Not to be outdone, JD.com has unveiled its ‘Spring Dawn’ initiative packed with enticing benefits for start-ups, self-employed businesses, and enterprises alike.

Platforms such as Douyin, Xiaohongshu, and WeChat are pivotal in driving purchase decisions. To put things into perspective, Douyin alone boasted a staggering 780 million daily users, raking in an impressive US$9.4 billion in 2022.
Engage with Key Opinion Customers (KOCs) who are genuine fans of your products, amplifying organic marketing reach. Given recent controversies surrounding top-tier KOLs like Li Jiaqi, consider allocating your advertising budget towards more relatable mid-tier KOLs.
